Fortnite frequently releases updates, but a major one is coming after Chapter Six, Season Four concludes. If you’re excited about what’s next, it’s important to know the exact end date and time.
With lots of key missions to complete around the island before the new season begins, knowing the season’s end will help you make sure you don’t miss any important content. Here’s everything you need to know about when Chapter Six, Season Four ends.
Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 4: Exact End Date and Time

Fortnite Chapter Six, Season Four officially ends shortly after 10:00 AM CT on November 1. The battle pass is set to expire at 9:30 AM CT, but the live event will start at 10:00 AM CT, running slightly longer than usual. Normally, the season end aligns with the battle pass expiration so players have maximum time to claim rewards, but this time it’s a little different.
After the live event concludes, Fortnite will go into downtime for a few hours before the new season begins. Downtime usually lasts between 2 to 5 hours, though the exact duration may vary. Since the live event timing isn’t precisely confirmed, the downtime start is uncertain, but 10:00 AM CT marks the official end of the regular season, with the live event occurring afterward.
Here’s the end date and time across major time zones:
- PT: 8:00 AM on Nov. 1
- CT: 10:00 AM on Nov. 1
- ET: 11:00 AM on Nov. 1
- BST: 4:00 PM on Nov. 1
- CEST: 5:00 PM on Nov. 1
- JST: 12:00 AM on Nov. 2
- AEST: 1:00 AM on Nov. 2
What’s Next After Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 4?

After Season Four ends, Fortnite will introduce a special The Simpsons-themed season, which is likely a mini-season rather than a full new season. A similar mini-season, Star Wars Galactic Battle, occurred earlier in this chapter. Therefore, this will probably be called Chapter Six, Mini-Season Two, not Season Five.
Some teasers are already visible on the island. The most noticeable is Bart’s Treehouse, featuring a flickering TV showing iconic scenes from The Simpsons. Occasionally, you might spot Kang and Kodos flying near the battle bus in a UFO. The official Fortnite X (formerly Twitter) page has also shared teaser images.
Before the season ends, make sure to complete all important quests to finish your battle pass. All Fortnitemares weapons, loot, bosses, and seasonal items will disappear once the season ends. Key missions to complete include:
- Hiding in dumpsters in different matches
- Defeating Jason
- Carving pumpkins
- Completing found quests
- Defeating Ultima Carver
- Visiting Stalkboxes
Finish these tasks soon to avoid missing out before the new season begins.
