Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 has just reached its midpoint, slowly but surely ushering in the end of the current chapter after only four seasons. And we know you! Of course, you already want to know when season 5 will start.

Therefore, we have the Chapter 4 Season 4 end and the Season 5 start date for you!

Fortnite Chapter 4: Season 4 End Date

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 started on August 25 and ends on Thursday, November 2, 2023, at 2 AM ET.

There is no officially confirmed end date yet, but if you look at the Battle Pass page in the game, you'll discover the following info in the bottom left corner:

Chapter 4 Season 4 goes until November 2 at 2 AM ET.

Therefore, it can be said with certainty that the Season will end on that day.

New Fortnite Season: Start Date For Season 5

Even if the official end of the Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass falls on November 2, the new season will not start until the following day. After the live event (which will hopefully happen), the servers usually go offline for a longer time to prepare the game for the big update. So you can expect Fortnite Season 5 to be released between November 2 and 3, 2023.


The interesting thing is that Season 5 is only a mini-season that is supposed to go a month and bring back the OG Chapter 1 map. Then, in early December, Chapter 5 starts with a completely new map.
We assume that the mini-season will be also a preparation for the new chapter and will be filled with many story elements.
