To eliminate sniper opponents in Sniper vs Octane, you will have to join the custom Creative map made for the Fortnite x Rocket League collaboration.

Octane was released to the Creative mode with the v22.10 update. However, Epic Games released it to the battle royale mode as well with the latest patch.

To join the Sniper vs Octane creative map, you either need to locate the map in the Discover tab or enter it through the island code. Here is everything you need to do to successfully complete the challenge:


1) Join the Creative map

The easiest way to join the Creative map is by opening the game mode selection menu and going to the Island Code tab. Here, you need to type in 8992-9205-6512, which will load the map you need for the challenge.

Make sure to enter the map through public matchmaking. The objective of the challenge is to eliminate opponents, which means that you need to play with other people.


2) Load into the match

Once you start the match, you will be placed on one of the two teams: Octane or Snipers. To eliminate sniper opponents in Sniper vs Octane, you will have to be on the Octane team.

However, if the game puts you on the Sniper team, you can simply play one round before the teams switch. Each round lasts up to five minutes, but it can end in half a minute if the Sniper team gets eliminated quickly.


3) Complete the challenge

Once you join the Octane team, you will be able to drive the popular Rocket League car and use it to eliminate sniper opponents.

The opponents will be placed on the platform in the middle of the map and will have several weapons at their disposal, including an assault rifle and a shotgun. Keep in mind that your car only has 400 HP, which means that you need to be careful and avoid their shots.

To eliminate opponents, use different maneuvers, such as boosts, flips, and jumps with the car to reach the middle platform. Once you do, you simply need to hit opponents with the car and they will be eliminated.
