How to launch fireworks at Coachella Island in Fortnite

The week 2 Fortnite Coachella quests are live now, and while a lot of them are straightforward, one seems to have caused some confusion for many players. The quest is for launching fireworks at Coachella Island, and as expected, the game doesn’t necessarily specify how to complete the objective. In this guide, we’ll show you how to launch fireworks at Coachella in Fortnite.

The first step is to actually make your way to Coachella Island. You cannot complete this quest during a normal match and instead must head into a Creator Made Island. To do so, you’ll need to head to Island Code from the game mode menu and utilize the code 5449-4207-1280. Then, launch into a match on Coachella Island.

Wait for the firework show to begin

It will take a little bit to load, so give it some time if need be. Once you arrive, head forward and you’ll see a board with various objectives. At the top is a countdown timer for the firework show. You’ll need to wait for this to count down, and after it does, you’ll be able to join the show. Keep in mind, the show happens every 15 minutes. There’s no way to speed up the timer, sadly, so be prepared to wait.

Launch three fireworks

Now that Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 Season 4 has been out for a little while, we've got a better sense of the game's weapon meta. There are some clear winners that carry over from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, but there are other top-tier weapons that might surprise you in battle royale. Of course, the weapon meta constantly shifts as Activision updates the way firearms perform, so we'll make sure to keep this up to date with each new patch.

These are the best Warzone 2.0 weapons for Season 4, categorized by weapon type. Keep in mind, some categories will be skipped, as they don't have any viable -- let alone meta -- options at the moment.

Every JRPG, and even games with RPG elements, likes to introduce new systems into the mix for you to learn and interact with.

While you might be feeling content ignoring this new mechanic and just pushing on with the main story, there are plenty of reasons to learn it. Here's a simple explanation of how the Renown system works in Final Fantasy 16.
