Fortnite Chapter 4 – Season 4 is just around the corner. The new season of the popular battle royale game will bring a lot of new content, including a new Battle Pass, major map changes, and much more. All of this will be available in less than 48 hours.

As soon as Season 3 was released, Epic Games set its ending date for August 25. Surprisingly, this date hasn’t moved, meaning there won’t be any delays. Another surprising thing is the lack of leaks from dataminers.

Epic has taken matters into its own hands this time, and the Fortnite Season 4 release date was just confirmed.

When will the new Fortnite season come out?

The new season of Fortnite will be released on Friday, August 25. Epic Games confirmed this with a new in-game teaser. The teaser can be seen when launching Fortnite, as it appears as a pop-up. Due to this, we believe that the start date of the new Fortnite season will be at 3 AM Eastern Time.

You can also check the exact start time for your region. While the update will come out at the same time all around the world, the new season will begin at different times due to time zones.

Epic Games did not just confirm the release date of Fortnite Season 4 with the latest teaser, but also its theme. It turns out that Mark Rein, co-founder of the company, was 100% accurate when he teased the theme on Tuesday.

A heist like no other. Are you in?
