Fortnite Season 5 expected release date and time

Fortnite Season 5 may arrive sooner than many players expect it to. Considering that the current season of the popular battle royale game is set to be the third-shortest season of all time, this comes as no surprise. However, Epic Games may decide to postpone the next season.

The video game publisher has dealt with a lot of controversy over the past few days. After announcing the increase in V-Bucks prices, Epic also laid off hundreds of employees. Fortunately, the company announced that these events will not affect the future of the video game.

If you’re curious to know about the release date of the next Fortnite season, we’ve got you covered.

Fortnite Season 5 to come out in early November

According to Epic Games, the current Fortnite season is scheduled to end on Friday, November 3. Considering that new seasons generally come out on Fridays, we expect Season 5 to follow suit. Due to this, players will likely be able to play it on the same day.

Season 4 is set to end at 2 AM Eastern Time, and Fortnite servers will likely be down for a few hours. While the game developer confirmed this date in the game, it is subject to change. Epic has postponed new seasons several times in the past, so it won’t be surprising if it happens again.

Fortnite Season 5 is set to come out a week after new V-Bucks prices kick in. The good news is that the price of the Battle Pass will likely remain the same. However, the pack of 1,000 V-Bucks will be increased from $7.99 to $8.99 in the United States.

The next Fortnite season may be the shortest season of all time. According to many reputable leakers, the season may only last for a month and will likely be the last season of Chapter 4.
