Fortnite Covert Ops Challenge #1 - April 22
As promised by Epic, this morning brought new Covert Ops challenges from The Origin for Fortnite players.

Once you've successfully shuffled ten other players off their mortal coil, The Origin's voice will pop back into your comms and welcome you to Covert Ops. You've successfully completed the first of four Covert Ops challenges! Wait until April 26 at 9 AM ET to receive your next
