All Fortnite Seasons Timeline

How Long Does a Fortnite Season Last?

The length of Fortnite seasons is mostly unpredictable. Over the years, Epic Games has played around with season lengths quite a bit. Sometimes they’re short and sweet, other times they drag on forever (Chapter 2 Season 1).

On average, you can expect a Fortnite season to stick around for about 75 days. That’s roughly two and a half months or 10-11 weeks. It’s usually enough time to max out your Battle Pass and get bored of the new POIs in the current season.

In the early days, season lengths were all over the place although in recent chapters, Epic Games has aimed for more consistent season lengths, typically ranging from 70 to 100 days. They’re aiming for that sweet spot where there’s enough time to enjoy all the new content and complete the Battle Pass, but not so long that players get bored and wander off to play other games.

What Is the Current Fortnite Season and When Will It End?

At the time of writing, Fortnite is in the middle of Chapter 5 Season 4 titled “Absolute Doom.” If you’re into Marvel, you’re probably loving this season. This season is centered around Marvel characters, particularly Doctor Doom, and features new superhero-themed skins, powers, and map changes. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 is scheduled to end on November 2, 2024.

When is the Next Fortnite Season?

The next Fortnite season is scheduled to begin between November 2 -4, 2024 (official dates are not confirmed yet). Following the end of Chapter 5 Season 4 “Absolute Doom,” players can expect some server downtime as Epic Games prepares for the transition. The exact duration of this downtime typically varies, but it usually lasts several hours.

Before the next Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 5 release date, players will experience a brief return to Chapter 2 through another Fortnite OG event. This temporary nostalgic period will serve as a bridge between Chapter 5 and Chapter 6, similar to how the previous OG season connected Chapters 4 and 5.

As Fortnite continues to evolve, each new season and chapter brings exciting changes to the game. From map overhauls to innovative gameplay mechanics, Epic Games consistently works to keep the Fortnite experience fresh and engaging for its millions of players worldwide.
