Season 11 of Fortnite is just around the corner. Before the new season begins, Epic has one final pair of Season 10 Overtime challenges for you to complete. One of these tasks involves tracking down two more recordings left behind by the Visitor, the mysterious time traveler who is building another rocket in Dusty Depot that will presumably tie into this weekend’s big in-game event.

Specifically, you’ll need to collect the Visitor recording in Starry Suburbs and Gotham City–two new Rift Zones introduced toward the end of Season 10. The areas themselves are easy enough to find, but you may have some trouble tracking down the recordings if you don’t already know where to look, so we’ve put together this guide to show you where you need to go.

Where Are The Visitor Recording Locations?

As the challenge states, one of the recordings is hidden somewhere in Starry Suburbs–a small town near Junk Junction–while the other is in the Batman-themed Rift Zone, Gotham City. The recordings are shaped like cassette tapes, so they’ll be hard to spot from a distance. The former is located inside the brick building in the middle of town; you’ll find the tape atop the bed in the top floor. The latter, meanwhile, is in the middle of the street in front of the movie theater.

How To Complete The Challenge

As usual, once you know where to go, completing this challenge is simply a matter of locating the recordings and collecting them as you would any other piece of loot in the game. Pocket both recordings and you’ll complete the challenge, netting you a whopping 10,000 XP.

There are four other Visitor recordings hidden around the map. The first two can be found on the floating island and in Retail Row, while the second two are in Moisty Palms and Greasy Grove. After you collect the recordings, you’re able to listen to them. The actual audio is quite cryptic and may not make a whole lot of sense if you’re not super tuned into Fortnite lore, but they give a bit of insight into the Visitor’s motives and help set the stage for this weekend’s world-changing event, which is scheduled to unfold at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET on October 13.

Fortnite Season 10 ends this Sunday, October 13, so you have until then to complete any remaining challenges from this season. You can find maps and guides for all the trickier missions in our Fortnite Season 10 challenges roundup. Epic hasn’t yet confirmed when Season 11 will officially kick off, but with the end of Season 10 in sight, it likely won’t be long. You can catch up on everything we know about Fortnite Season 11 so far here.

We’re well into October now, which can mean only one thing: pumpkin spice everything. But also, the new month means another slew of Xbox Game Pass games are incoming. Microsoft detailed the lineup coming throughout the rest of the month on PC, for both PC and Ultimate subscribers.

The headliner of the October set is The Outer Worlds, a spiritual successor to the Fallout series from some of the leads who brought that series to life. Instead of a post-apocalyptic wasteland, Outer Worlds has you exploring space. Though it’s coming from a studio that is now Microsoft-owned, it’s actually being published through Private Division. Still, the company has brokered a deal to make it a release on Game Pass across both PC and consoles.

Other releases for October include the racing game F1 2018, the mountain bike game Lonely Mountains Downhill, and the micro-sized game Minit. You can also be a super-powered president in Saints Row 4: Re-Elected, experience a sci-fi thriller with State of Mind, and journey into the stars with Stellaris.

None of the announced games have a release date, except for The Outer Worlds which releases on October 25 and is also available on the console Game Pass. The announcement also notes that Sinner: Sacrifice for Redemption will be leaving the service in October, so play it while you can.

The list of PC releases is separate from the Xbox One console lineup, which includes Dishonored 2, World War Z, Yooka-Laylee. You can purchase the PC or console game pass individually for $10 per month, or get the combined “Ultimate” Game Pass that also includes Xbox Live Gold for $15 per month.

The first free update for Monster Hunter World‘s Iceborne expansion is now live on PS4 and Xbox One. The update introduces an assortment of new content and gameplay tweaks to the title, including a new monster to hunt, the ability to invite other players to your room, and more.

Headlining this update is the fearsome Rajang, a returning monster from Monster Hunter Freedom 2. Just as in previous games, the ape-like beast is capable of entering “rage mode.” In this state, the monster’s fur turns golden and it becomes even more relentless. “This ruthless beast offers a challenge for even the most experienced hunters … so it’s not a fight that should be taken lightly,” Capcom warns.

To hunt the Rajang, you’ll first need to have cleared Iceborne’s main story and explored the Guiding Lands at least once. If you meet those requirements, you’ll be able to take on a new Special Assignment to hunt the monster. You can begin the quest by speaking to the Admiral.

In addition to the Rajang, the update enables you to make your room public. You can choose this setting either by speaking to the housekeeper in your room or by going into the Communication option from the main menu and then selecting Your Room. Capcom has also added new decor for your room in Seliana.

Rounding out the update are a variety of gameplay tweaks, many concerning the aforementioned Guiding Lands. Among other changes, Capcom has adjusted the rate special tracks drop in the area. According to the developer, “Unanalyzed special tracks are now easier to obtain, making it easier to lure out specific monsters and control your region levels.” Additionally, you’re now guaranteed to get special tracks after capturing or carving a monster.

On top of that, Capcom has changed how the region level fluctuates. “In the Guiding Lands, you can obtain different materials at each level, so adjustments have been made to how levels increase/decrease to make it easier to explore,” the developer explains. You can read more about these changes and other details related to the new update on Capcom’s blog.

Capcom has more updates on the way for Iceborne. Next month will bring Resident Evil 2 costumes to the game. PS4 owners will also get an exclusive Event Quest inspired by Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds. Two more Frozen Wilds quests will follow in December.

Iceborne is the first paid expansion for Monster Hunter World. It’s available now on PS4 and Xbox One, with a PC release to follow in January. We gave it a 9/10 in our Iceborne review and said, “Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is at its best when you’re fighting tooth and nail against something that you know could crush you within its teeth in a second, even though this might feel like it came at the expense of a more interesting narrative.”

Rocket League is getting a collaboration with Stranger Things, as part of its annual Haunted Hallows event. The limited-time event will let you obtain items inspired by the Netflix series from October 14 through November 11.

The event centers on the Farmstead, which has been turned from its usual whimsical style to a spooky Upside Down-inspired map. Playing on the revised Farmland will earn you Candy Corn to spend in the Haunted Hallows Event Store. It’s full of autumn-inspired designs including special Hawkins Laboratory designs.

That means you can collect cosmetics like a Camp No Where topper to give your car a look like Dustin’s hat, a Demogorgon player banner, and a Scoops Ahoy avatar border. Those join other, more traditional autumnal designs like decals decorated with fall foliage and candy wrappers. There are also special Golden Pumpkins with items from the Accelerator, Velocity, and Triumph Crates.

Rocket League developer Psyonix recently announced a new Blueprints system to replace loot crates starting in December. As part of the changeover, keys will be converted into credits, which will serve as the new unlocking mechanism.
