Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 has been out for a good while now and that means questions are being asked about when Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 will begin.
Thankfully, Epic Games has given us a suggestion on when we can expect the new season, and some leaks may have revealed its overall theme and some potential map changes.
When is ‘Fortnite’ Chapter 5 Season 3?
Chapter 5 Season 3 of Fortnite is currently set for May 24, 2024, according to the in-game timer showing the end of the current Season. The season will likely launch shortly after some server downtime, as with all seasons.
However, Epic Games has been known to delay seasons slightly to line up with other events like The Game Awards – and with Summer Game Fest set to begin on June 7, 2024, there’s a chance the new season could be pushed back back to line up with the event.
Once we have more details from Epic Games themselves as we get closer to the end of Chapter 5 Season 2, we will be sure to update this article.
