Players were puzzled when logging into Fortnite on June 11, expecting the usual Tuesday release of the Week 3 quests. Generally, Weekly Quests drop each Tuesday at 10 AM ET, which is a crucial moment for those aiming to advance their Battle Pass levels. These quests typically provide a significant XP boost, enabling players to reach level 100 and beyond to snag exclusive cosmetics and V-Bucks available in Bonus Rewards.
The missing quests are linked to the pending v30.10 update initially set for Tuesday but rescheduled to Thursday, June 13. Epic Games confirmed the delay on Twitter, indicating that the quests will arrive with the update. During this period, Fortnite will undergo a few hours of downtime.
In summary:
- Date: Thursday, June 13, 2024
- Update: v30.10
- Downtime: A few hours
- Reason: Delay in the update release
These changes affect everyone aiming for Battle Pass progression, so players should plan accordingly.
Why Aren’t Week 3 Quests Showing Up?
Players noticed the absence of Week 3 quests in the Weekly Quests section when they logged into Fortnite on Tuesday. This was particularly frustrating for those eager to earn XP to level up their season and unlock Battle Pass rewards.
The likely reason for the delay is the upcoming v30.10 update, scheduled for release on Thursday, which disrupted the usual process. Typically, Fortnite updates are bi-weekly, with new quests added each time. Delays in the update caused the quests, originally set for Tuesday, to be pushed back as well.
Epic Games usually follows a consistent schedule, but unforeseen issues can cause changes. Players should expect the quests to appear once the v30.10 update is live.
When Will Week 3 Quests Release?
Gamers wondering when the Week 3 Quests will become available in Fortnite will be happy to know that they shouldn’t be waiting long. Both the Weekly Quests and Story Quests had to be delayed due to the update coming out on Thursday rather than Tuesday. The Raiding the Rig Quests (Story Quests) countdown was updated, and they are now scheduled for Thursday at 10 AM ET. Even though the Weekly Quests countdown only mentions the release of the Week 4 Quests, this is likely a visual bug; the Fortnite Week 3 Quests will likely be released on Thursday at 10 AM ET.
