Want to know the Fortnite Chapter 3 release date? It’ll soon be time to bid a fond farewell to Fortnite Chapter 2; eight seasons of reality-hopping drama that brought with it more exciting collaborations than ever before, and an alien infestation to investigate. The last season has seen the return of monsters via rifts from The Sideways and mysterious Cubes rolling around the island.
With the announcement of the finale to Chapter 2, ‘The End’ has players fight against the Cube Queen as she emerges from the pyramid she built using her purple Cube brethren. However, like previous end-of-season events, this will likely end with a countdown timer showing when the next season begins.
So what’s coming after ‘The End’? Will there be any dramatic changes to the island design, and will we see the continuation of the lucrative collaborations with other games, films, and brands? The details that have leaked so far indicate that this is the case, so join us as we give you the lowdown on when Fortnite Chapter 2 ends, information on when Fortnite Chapter 3 begins, and what may be coming soon to an island near you.
Fortnite Chapter 3 release date

Fortnite Chapter 2 The End date
The season finale of Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8, known as ‘The End’, will begin December 4 at 4pm ET / 1pm PT / 9pm GMT.

Fortnite Chapter 3 collaborations
Fortnite is no stranger to collaborations to help promote new films with recent examples, including Free Guy, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and Venom: Let There Be Carnage. Hypex reports that there will be a Matrix Resurrections collaboration, which wouldn’t be the first time a character portrayed by Keanu Reeves appears in Fortnite.
