New Quests that require players to use an X-4 Stormwing have been added to the game files for Week 6. The plane, which was last seen in Battle Royale during Chapter 2 Season 5, recently received updates that changed the following stats:

  • Damage on explosions: 50 (players) & 800 (structures)
  • Players who exit the vehicle in-flight will now be ejected to the side instead of launching up into the air. Gliders can still be deployed.
  • Impulse Grenades now launch the X-4 Stormwing.

According to a 3D artist who extracted the Stormwing's upcoming spawn locations from the files, the plane will be found in-game on the three floating runways that can currently be seen around the Island.

Launching on Thursday, October 27, the Season 4 Week 6 Quests are as follows:

  • Take a Biplane through a rift (1)
  • Travel 2000 meters in a Biplane (2000)
  • Phase through a chrome wall and deal damage to an opponent within 30 seconds (75)
  • Fall 7 stories or more in Chrome Blob form (1)
  • Land at Tilted Towers, then finish Rank 10 or better (2)
  • Eliminate an opponent before the first storm phase begins (1)
  • Deal damage to opponents while at max health and shields (200)
  • Catch a gun while fishing (1)
  • Accept a bounty from a bounty board within 30 seconds of landing (1)

It's currently unknown how long the planes will remain in-game for. As always, we'll keep you updated.
