When Does the New Fortnite Season Come Out

According to Fortnite’s Battle Pass menu, a new season should start on Friday August 16, 2024.

Expectedly, this season will feature Marvel-related content; leaked roadmaps indicate Doctor Doom as an integral character within its plotline. There will also be a fallout connection thanks to T-60 Power Armor.

1. The Start Date

Fortnite players everywhere rejoice at the beginning of each new season as it brings with it new themes, storylines and game-changing weapons that players will look forward to experiencing. Each season offers something different for players to experience!

Epic Games made headlines earlier this year by joining forces with Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish for their music videos, but this wasn’t all they were up to; their studio also worked tirelessly on improving the game via regular updates that included adding items, weapons, and locations into it.

Fortnite will return on August 16 2024 according to its in-game countdown feature, with speculation surrounding Marvel characters such as Deadpool and Wolverine skins released earlier this year. A leaked roadmap also suggested Dr. Doom will play an integral part of this update – potentially including returning back to its original island or adding classic Marvel heroes such as Captain America or Spider-Man!

2. The Length of the Season

Fortnite seasons typically span a few months, though shorter versions have also occurred. Epic Games has extended previous seasons to give more playing time but hasn’t done so lately.

The new season will bring with it several updates and additions to the game, such as map updates and an all-new Battle Pass to work through. There may even be a theme this time around: it has been speculated to be Marvel-themed season.

The next season will begin on August 16 – which also marks its close – but with some downtime for server setup. But everyone should quickly be back playing! With so much new content already present in the game, this may be shorter than previous seasons – likely ideal since so much awaits them in game!

3. The Theme

Fortnite is a free-to-play game, but players can spend real money to buy exclusive cosmetic items. Battle Passes can be bought in-game store to unlock rewards such as new skins or accessories.

As yet it remains undetermined what the theme for Fortnite’s next season will be; however, speculation suggests it could take on a post-apocalyptic Mad Max feel. Epic Games has hinted towards this possibility via Nitro Wasteland Stories quests that offer challenges at fuel depots around Fortnite’s map.

Nitro Wasteland Stories quests include constellations that resemble Doom’s star, lending credence to speculation that Doom will serve as the main antagonist in Fortnite season 5. Furthermore, latest leaks suggest an alliance with Fallout could result in new versions of T-60 Power Armor for Brotherhood of Steel members.

4. The End Date

Epic Games will unveil the next Fortnite season once this one concludes; its precise date has yet to be decided upon but is likely sometime during August 2024, according to previous seasons.

Once an update becomes available, players will need to prepare by clearing their save files and downloading large amounts of data – although its exact size remains unknown; past updates have typically topped 95GB.

Fortnite is constantly changing, with each season bringing significant modifications. From adding in temporary mechanics that vanish after one month to altering its map’s layout, Epic Games continues to make changes that enhance this beloved battle royale game. Every season also brings with it exclusive cosmetics and emotes – giving players something extra to distinguish their characters on the battlefield and personalise their experience!
