Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 brings a Marvel-themed story for players to dig into. There’s a bunch of new areas to visit, including The Raft, each hiding a powerful boss enemy to take down.

We’re now nearing the end of the current season, and have some details on what to expect when things switch over tomorrow (November 2). While we haven’t received all of the details on the next season, we do know that it’ll be a throwback to Chapter 2, which will certainly make long-time players very happy indeed. It’s frequent updates like these that make Fortnite one of the best battle royale games around.

Here’s everything you need to know about the process of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 ending, when Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix starts, and what to expect.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 will end on November 2, 2024. This is according to the main Battle Pass screen in-game. Generally, this has been pretty accurate in the past, but be aware that timings have been known to be tweaked slightly as the end of the season approaches.

It’s worth noting that some previous seasons’s timings shifted by a couple of days just before the new one was supposed to arrive, so timings here are always subject to change regarding downtime periods. The best place to keep up on specific updates closer to the launch of the new season is the Fortnite Status Twitter account. We’ll be sure to keep this page up to date as well.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 5 will launch on Saturday November 2, 2024 if Epic sticks to its current schedule. The thing to remember about new Fortnite seasons and chapters is that there is always a period of downtime after one ends. This downtime makes the next season’s exact start time a little tricky to predict as it can range from a couple of hours – as was the case last season – to multiple days, which has happened between chapters before.

There will be a “Mom’s Spaghetti” location, where you’ll find Eminem, and some returning Chapter 2 characters like Guff.

Now that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 is live, we can take a look at the new map changes. These largely involve the addition of three new main areas: Castle Doom, Doomstadt, and The Raft. The northern parts of the map are the areas where you’ll see the most changes here, with Doom Courtyard also added. Red trees can be seen all over this area, and Easter Eggs like the Fantastic Four logo can be found nearby. In terms of the rest of the map, things are pretty much as they were last season. The Wastelander zones can still be found, including the Nitrodome, Brutal Beachhead and Redline Rig.

In terms of what’s gone, Classy Courts has made way for Doom’s Courtyard, which is home to a giant statue of Doom’s face. The Wastlelander bosses have gone too. In their place are Doom Bot, Emma Frost and Mysterio. Each drops a mythic weapon when defeated, as well as a medallion that each grants a different effect. Vehicle upgrade boxes and turrets are no longer available either, marking the end of the vehicle combat meta.
