Fortnite’s Fall Guys collaboration arrived in August 2024 and with it came a set of short “Where We Fallin’?” quests to complete and earn XP from. To get started, you’ll need to start the Fall Guys challenge at “Bean Idols”, but if you’re just looking at this objective from the lobby, it won’t really give you any direction as to what that means.

Below, we explain how to start the Fall Guys challenge in Fortnite, as well as what rewards you get for completing the obstacle course.

The Fall Guys arena is in the northeast area of the map, above the water near Classy Courts. You won’t see it on your map if you’re in lobby, but once you load on to the island, you’ll see an unmistakable Fall Guys course on your map.

As you approach the area, you’ll notice six glowing golden Bean Idol statues (as shown in the image above). You’ll need to head up to one of these and interact with them in order to start the Fall Guys challenge.


Fortnite Fall Guys challenge rewards

The faster you complete the Fall Guys challenge, the better loot you’ll get, ranging from gold to bronze. Once you complete the obstacle course, you’ll get a little Fall Guys Pegwin pack that’ll follow you from the course to wherever you land. Once you land, it’ll blow up, giving you all sorts of loot, including guns, ammo, shield potions, and other useful stuff for the island.

Once you get your loot, you won’t be able to do the challenge again, as it’s a once-per-match kind of gimmick.

You’ll also get heaps of XP when you complete the course once or twice, as the associated “Where We Fallin’?” quests just require that you run, jump, mantle, and do other movements that you’ll do naturally as you do the course.
