With Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 upon us, fans are anticipating another wave of battle royale craziness. In this post, we’ll be going over some details of the new season like when it will start and what type of content to expect.
Even years after its release, Fortnite has more than managed to stay relevant thanks to the consistent waves of new content from events and collaborations. Just recently, the game has had a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles event and a collaboration with Lady Gaga.
So if you’re itching to find out what’s in store for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 then let’s go ahead and dive into the details.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 release date
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 is expected to go live on March 8, 2024. This is the same day that Chapter 5 Season 1 is scheduled to end, so expect a few hours of downtime in between for server maintenance.
This coincides with the 75 days allotted for each Fortnite season, but updates have been delayed in the past. We’ll update this section in case of any changes.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 teasers
Following the opening of Pandora's Box, Epic Games has started teasing ahead of Season 2's launch.
The teaser appears to show Zeus holding a lightning bolt in the skies. It's unclear how the Greek God will play a role in the season, so we'll wait and see what the developer has in store.
In addition to Zeus, Hades has also appeared in the skies above the Fortnite map, all but confirming the Greek Mythology theme.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 content
Though nothing has been officially confirmed just yet, leaks suggest that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 will be getting a Greek mythology theme. This means we’ll be getting maps and NPCs that fit the Ancient Greek aesthetic and skins for characters like Ares, Artemis, and Hermes.
Dataminers have also found evidence for Greek mythology-related content thanks to the release of patch 28.30. Among the files that these dataminers have discovered are the three-headed dog Cerberus and a skin codenamed Odyssey.
That’s everything we know about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 so far, but we’ll be updating this guide as soon as we have more information. While you’re here, feel free to check out how to unlock fishing rods in Lego Fortnite or read up on the rarest Fortnite gliders.
