Fortnite Week 8 Challenge Guide: Using a Launcher from Guardian Towers

We might be about halfway through the current season, but there's still a new set of challenges to complete for Fortnite Season 6 Week 8.

The new challenges are due to go live at around 09:00 EST / 14:00 BST on May 6th and we have everything you need to know about using a Launcher from one of the five Guardian Towers.

GUIDE - Use launcher from Guardian Towers

The Spire is a new location in Chapter 2 Season 6 and there are also five Guardian Towers dotted around the map.

You can check out their locations on the map below.

To complete this, head to one of the five Guardian Tower locations, then walk up the ramp to the top of it.

From here you will see an area with a purple glow, walk over it and you will launch into the air and can use your glider redeploy to travel far across the map.
