FORTNITE Chapter 4 Series 3 is almost here, and as usual, rumors abound about what Epic Games has in store for the battle royale game’s newest update.
Chapter 4 Season 2 of Fortnite, saw the introduction of the Star Wars event, and Transformers might be the next brand to make the crossover.
This will be the first full series with Ranked bouts, which were introduced last month and for the first time allow players to fully compare their ability against others.
It has been confirmed via Fortnite Status on Twitter that Chapter 4 Season 2 will end on Friday, June 9 at 2am EST/7am BST, when there will be a few hours of inactivity.
If this new season follows prior trends – and there’s nothing to suggest it won’t – Chapter 4 Series 3 should be available in the early afternoon on Friday.
Because no events have been announced for the new series, gamers will be thrown directly into the fray.
