Fortnite OG Season 3 release date, expected start time countdown and exciting leaks

There is a lot for Fortnite fans to anticipate. For the very near future, leaks have revealed there will be a special event to celebrate April Fools’ day, meanwhile, Epic has officially confirmed the launch date for the new Dodge Ram Truck. With both of these and more to anticipate, here you will find the release date and expected time countdown for when Fortnite OG Season 3 will start, and you’ll also find exciting leaks.

Fortnite OG Season 3 release date

The release date for Fortnite OG Season 3 is March 25th. This has been officially confirmed by Epic on the game’s X account.

While the return to the past is close, leaks have revealed details about Chapter 6 Season 3 scheduled to arrive on May 2nd. According to several often-reliable leakers, this chapter will be themed around Star Wars.

The galaxy far, far away has frequently collaborated with Epic Games’ battle royale in the past, so more Star Wars content wouldn’t be surprising. However, we still have over a month to wait until then, and tomorrow we are going back in time again.

When does Fortnite OG start?

The expected release time for when Fortnite OG Season 3 will start is roughly 4AM PDT/7AM EDT/11AM GMT on March 25th.

While the launch day is official, Epic is yet to confirm any maintenance time. Based on the past, we expect maintenance to begin at roughly 2AM PDT/5AM EDT/9AM GMT, and for it to end at the hours mentioned above.

Nothing has been posted as of writing, but make sure to follow FortniteStatus on X for updates from the developer.
