Ciri’s Escape Island and its Parkour Course is a collaboration between Team Unite and Epic Games for a The Witcher-themed Fortnite event. You can access the challenge until July 4, 2023, by using the “2776-4034-8400” island code. Completing Ciri’s Escape Island will reward you with items for your Locker:

Confident Ciri Emoticon
The Tale of Two Tempests Banner (unlocked once you’ve beaten both Ciri Escape and Yennefer’s Battleground)

Before we begin our escape though, here are some things that you need to remember:

Always look for a lamp on the ground or platform – it indicates the location where you need to go.
Touching any body of water will instantly kill you, except in Area 3.
Going slightly out of bounds of the parkour course will also instantly kill you.
A double jump can be done in two ways while holding the Sword:
- Hold the Fire key and jump twice.
- Sprint and jump, and then hold the Fire key and jump again.

Area 1: Snowy Cliff Ciri’s Escape Parkour Course

Sprint and jump across the gap.
Open the chest to get the Sword.
- You will need this sword to do double jumps.
Look to your right until you see an upwards arrow on a cliffside.
While holding the Fire key with the Sword, jump on top of the cliff.
- Jumping while holding the Fire key will make you jump much higher.

Jump across the chasm. Aim for the rightmost platform for easier access.
