I took a break from Minecraft this weekend to play Fortnite and take part in the in-game event on Saturday.
The event itself was very cool. The Ice King, who was suspended in a frozen sphere above the island, busted out in a big way and then summoned a massive storm and ice monsters to cover the entire island.
Before the event, just the bottom-left portion of the map (Polar Peak, Happy Hamlet, etc.) was snow-bound. Now the entire map is covered in snow!
There are new Ice Storm challenges to complete and each challenge that you complete will earn you 500 XP. That’s not very much, but it’s still fun to do them. This is a list of all the available Ice Storm challenges so far:
- Complete Ice Storm challenges (6)
- Destroy Ice Fiends (250)
- Deal damage with explosive weapons to the Ice Legion (5,000)
- Destroy Ice Brutes (100)
- Deal damage with Assault Rifles or Pistols to the Ice Legion (10,000)
There will be more added over the next few days. It’s around two per day or something like that.
