There seems to be at least some intrigue during Fortnite Season 6 as players try to uncover the mystery of the Spires and The Seven, and one Week 8 Epic Quest continues this trend by having players find research books. During Week 8 of Fortnite Season 6, players are tasked with searching buildings to find eight research books around Holly Hedges and Pleasant Park. While the contents of these books will not necessarily provide more lore the way the Fortnite Season 6 Spire Quests do, this quest will reward players 24,000 XP toward their Battle Pass and can contribute to the needed Epic Quests to unlock other Neymar Jr. cosmetics.
All the books in Holly Hedges and Pleasant Park are found inside houses, but players will need to be careful when trying to access them all. Holly Hedges and Pleasant Park are points of high traffic in the early stages of a match, as they tend to be some of the best locations for gathering loot. Though players do not have to compete to find books, as every player gets their own set, there is still a chance for someone to get eliminated along the way. This may be one Epic Quest to complete in Team Rumble to avoid getting into as many skirmishes. Here’s where to go to find and collect all eight Research Books in Holly Hedges and Pleasant Park in Fortnite Season 6.
