A countdown was added to Fortnite earlier this week, and it now known that it is marking the time until the Rift Tour event, which will allow players to "journey to magical new realities," begins. In preface of the start of that event, a series of Rift Tour challenges have been added to Fortnite, one of which instructs fans to Save the Date in the Rift Tour tab and play a match. For those players that may be confused about exactly how they should approach this task, full details can be found in this guide.
To put things quite simply, Fortnite fans that are working on the "Save the Date in the Rift Tour tab and play a match" challenge should begin by navigating to the Lobby. For full clarity, this is the menu where players select their preferred game modes and initiate matches, and there are several different tabs at the top of it. One of those tabs is the Rift Tour tab, and fans should click on it to be taken to a new menu.

At this point, players will encounter a number of colorful cards, each of which displays a different date and time. Fans should now click on one of these cards, which will cause a checkmark to appear at its bottom, and then return to the Lobby to finish the first step of this Rift Tour challenge. Notably, players can select any of the cards from the Rift Tour tab for the purposes of completing this task, though they may want to put some thought toward which of these Fortnite live events they actually want to attend.
Next, fans should load into a match and play until they are either eliminated or achieve victory. Regardless of the way that the match ultimately ends, players will receive indication that they have completed the "Save the Date in the Rift Tour tab" challenge upon its conclusion. They will also earn the Cosmic Cuddles Loading Screen in Fortnite, which is quite a psychedelic image indeed.
As previously indicated, this is just one of several of the Rift Tour challenges that are now available in Fortnite, and players can obtain some additional rewards by completing them all. Those rewards include the Cloudy Kitty Emoticon and the Rift-sterpiece Spray, and fans will need to do things like use an Alien Hologram Pad on top of the Party UFO in order to earn them. Fortunately, the Rift Tour event is still one week away, which means that players have plenty of time to tackle every one of these tasks.
Fortnite is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
