Season 8 of Fortnite may be quickly approaching, but players still have plenty of time to complete and unlock Season 7's challenges and rewards in Battle Royale mode. As usual, if you clear all of the challenges from a given week, you'll complete one of this season's new Snowfall challenges, which in turn will reward you with a special loading screen that hides a clue pointing to a free item waiting somewhere around the map.
Depending on how many weekly sets of challenges you complete, the free item you can find will either be a Battle Star, which will level your Battle Pass up by one tier, or a Banner, which you'll be able to use as a profile icon once you've collected it. The latter will be up for grabs if you finish four weeks' challenges and unlock the loading screen pictured below, which depicts a character riding the delayed Driftboard vehicle above Happy Hamlet, one of the new areas introduced to the island at the start of this season.
If you look to the right of the character, you'll be able to spot the Banner hanging on the face of one of the buildings. To find it in the game, simply head to Happy Hamlet at the start of a match and make your way to the building pictured in the loading screen. Build a ramp leading up just above the first window and the Banner will appear on the wall. Collect it as you would any other item then finish the match, and you'll be able to use your new Banner as your profile icon.
If you need a more visual guide, you can watch us collect the Banner in the video above. However, as usual, you'll need to complete all of the requisite steps in order to find it. The Banner won't appear on the map unless you've first completed four weeks' sets of challenges and unlocked the above loading screen. You can also find guides on finding all of this season's other free Battle Stars and Banners below.
The 14 Days of Fortnite event ra until January 2 and featured a new challenge to complete and reward to unlock each day, with a special reward waiting for players who've managed to complete all 14 of the daily challenges. Meanwhile, Week 4's challenges task you with eliminating opponents in Expedition Outposts and searching for the letters N, O, M, S, among other things.
