All good things end... eventually. Season 2 of Fortnite Chapter 2 was originally scheduled to conclude on April 30, but a few weeks prior, developer Epic Games announced an extension. Season 2 was then set to conclude on June 4, and then June 11. In light of the ongoing protests in the US related to the murder of George Floyd, Epic has announced plans to push things back once again. Season 3 will now begin on June 17, and the major event preceding it has also been pushed as a result.

There has been some unexpected extra Season 2 content to keep you busy in the meantime, as well as the Doomsday event that could have major implications for Season 3 itself.

When Does Fortnite Season 3 Start?

Fortnite Season 3 is launching on June 17, immediately after the end of Season 2. Battle Pass challenges are available to complete until that new date. The Device event--better known as the Doomsday event--will take place on June 15.
