What’s new in Fortnite?
Fortnite Blitz arrived June 18, a brand new mobile mode. It focuses on streamlining the main battle royale experience, condensing it into 5-minute matches to better suit mobile gaming. Updates are planned for the next few weeks, with the latest being showcasing mythic weapons and items from classic Fortnite bosses.
Fortnite Chapter 6 is finally here, continuing with Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 which has switched up the map once again. There’s new weapons to try out, a superhero-themed Battle Pass, as well as updates centered around Superman himself.
We don’t yet know exactly what’s to follow in the next season of Fortnite, but given Fortnite Super just launched, it could be a while before we get any hints from Epic Games. It’s frequent updates like these that make Fortnite one of the best battle royale games around. Last season concluded June 7 with a climactic Star Wars live event, before Chapter 6 Season 3 went live across the world.
Here’s everything you need to know about the process of Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 launching, when the next season starts, and what to expect from Fortnite in the future. Also, the latest on what’s been revealed about Superman, and other superhero skins.
When does the current season of Fortnite end?
Fortnite Super will end on August 8, 2025. So far, no details have been shared on specific timings, though the in-game Battle Pass menu does count down to the update. We’ll be sure to provide details closer to launch, but expect the new season to launch after a period of extended downtime.
When is the next season of Fortnite?
The next season of Fortnite has yet to be fully revealed, but it’ll launch following downtime on August 8, 2025. Hopefully, downtime is only 2-3 hours (based on the average times of Chapter 6 so far), but it’s worth noting that things have been known to slip slightly in the past.
What to expect from the next Fortnite season
Epic Games has not fully revealed what’s in store for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4, but given that the current one only just launched, we’ll be waiting at least a month for updates. What we do know is that Superman will arrive in Fortnite on July 11, with quests going live that’ll reward you with a Superman Skin and related cosmetic items.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 map changes
Here’s the full map for Fortnite Super. As you can see in the image above, there’s still some Star Wars locations like Outpost Enclave, First Order Base, and Resistance Base. The new locations are Supernova Academy, Utopia City, and Demon’s Domain. Sprites have been turned into mascots, but work the same way as before, with different abilities like laser-vision.
