While Unencrypted missions are fairly straightforward, Fortnite’s Encrypted Cipher Quests come with “inconclusive” descriptions. These vague objectives will offer subtle clues on how to complete them, so players will need to deduce what the Quest is asking them to do.

There will be a new Encrypted Quest every day until March 7, and they will all be available until March 10, giving players plenty of time to solve the three needed to get the bonus reward. Stay tuned for updates on each of the stages as they are released.
