Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 is reaching an end, which means players may want to buckle up for next season. Here’s what we know about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 release date.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 was stacked with exciting updates and modes. Besides creating a new biome in the south dubbed the wasteland, Season 3 gave us Fortnite Reload, which brought back a herd of nostalgic players.
While Reload is likely a permanent mode, the wasteland will soon be swapped out with a new arena in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4.
So far, Epic Games has kept quiet about any hints regarding the next season, but we can make an educated guess about the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 release date.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 release date
The Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 release date is Friday, August 16, 2024.
Based on the information gleaned from the in-game battle pass menu, the current battle pass is set to shut down on August 16. Given Fortnite’s previous season start dates, the new season will likely kick off on Friday, the same day the current one wraps up.
Fortnite seasons generally run for about three months, but based on the in-game date, it seems that this one will be slightly shorter, lasting two months and 23 days.
In preparation for the upcoming season, it’s a good idea for players to clear some space and refrain from playing the game on the release date of the new season, as servers typically go down for a brief period. Based on the size of previous updates, it’s recommended to clear out roughly 100GB.
This is all you need to know about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, since Epic Games hasn’t released any teasers so far. All leaks, however, point towards a Marvel-themed season, which may mark the return of Doom as the super-villain.
Rest assured, the next season will bring in heaps of rewards, exclusive cosmetics, and a brand-new battle pass for players to tear through.
