Fortnite developer Epic Games is getting ready to unleash a brand new season of Battle Royale. The current season comes to an end with the Fracture event at 9pm GMT on December 3. The event is expected to lay waste to the island, ushering a brand new chapter and season following a period of server downtime. The downtime is expected to last for upwards of 12 hours, which means Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 1 will have a December 4 release date, and a launch time between 7-9am GMT.
Fortnite developer Epic Games will confirm start times once the Fracture event comes to an end, so check back later for more details.
If you want to take part in the Fracture event, then Epic recommends logging in 30 minutes before the start of the action.
Unusually, however, the Fortnite developer has confirmed that fans will also be able to join in mid-event, so it shouldn’t make too much difference if you’re running late.
It’s also worth noting that anybody who logs in before and during the event will receive a free emote for taking part.
As for Chapter 4, Season 1, fans can expect big changes to the Fortnite map, which will undergo a big redesign for the start of a new era.
According to Fortnite insiders such as Hypex and Shiina, the new map is codenamed Asteria.
Speaking of leaks, the new season is expected to introduce motorbikes to the Island. Likewise, players will also reportedly be able to ride flying animals.
Perhaps most exciting of all is the rumour of a first-person mode, which will completely transform the way fans experience the game.
That’s on top of the release of the Unreal Editor for Creative 2.0, which will allow players to create much more advanced worlds.
Battle Pass leaks are likely to drop during downtime, although there’s speculation that the long-awaited Family Guy crossover could happen, or One Piece.
With the new Avatar movie releasing later this month, don’t be surprised if Epic drops some Avatar skins, either in the Item Shop or as part of the Battle Pass.
