Fortnite: How to Time Travel into the Future Slowly - Explained

Fortnite is currently hosting a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles event until February 27th. During this event, players have the opportunity to complete a mini TMNT-inspired Battle Pass by completing special quests. This guide will help you clear one particular quest: "Time travel into the future slowly."

What is 'Time Travel into the Future Slowly' in Fortnite

The Splinter Assignment Quests are a series of Ninja Turtle themed challenges that unlock every few days during the event. Completing these quests earns players Ooze, which is the currency used to unlock rewards from the Cowabunga event pass.

On February 15th, a new set of 8 Splinter Assignment Quests became available, including an odd one requiring players to "time travel into the future slowly." This vague quest understandably left many players confused about how to actually complete it in-game.

How to Time Travel Slowly

To complete the time travel quest, players simply need to spend 300 seconds (5 minutes) playing a match of Fortnite Battle Royale. However, the 300-second timer won't start until after leaving the pre-game island and entering the Battle Bus.

The 300-second requirement lines up perfectly with the quest's description of "slowly" time-traveling into the future.

• As time passes in real life, you are slowly moving farther into the future.
• Requiring 300 seconds ensures players experience this gradual time travel.

Tips for Completing the Quest Quickly:

• Stay on the Battle Bus until forced off at the end to maximize air time.
• Open glider immediately and stay in the air as long as possible.
• Avoid fights and stay moving to avoid being eliminated.

What Else is in the Cowabunga Clash Quests?

In addition to the time travel challenge, the other 7 Phase 3 Splinter Assignment Quests include objectives like:

• Reaching top 25 in a match
• Visiting different named locations
• Opening chests and supply drops
• Damaging enemies while airborne

Each quest rewards 300-400 Ooze to unlock more Ninja Turtle themed cosmetics.

More TMNT Fun Awaits

The time travel quest may be oddly worded, but it's a small price to pay for the excitement of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fortnite collaboration. Be sure to complete this quick challenge and keep an eye out for more legendary turtle power before the event ends!
