Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 is set to release on May 24, 2024, although it could be delayed. This is the weekend the current season will end, but there will be some downtime, so exactly when the update goes live will depend on how long the downtime is.

What to Expect From Chapter 5 Season 3

Even though there isn’t much information regarding the new season yet, some things are always guaranteed in Fortnite. We can expect changes to the map, new NPCs, weapons being unvaulted, and a fresh Battle Pass filled with rewards.

The rewards in the Battle Pass follow a theme, and there will be Sins, Backblings, Harvesting tools, and more. There is often a guest skin as well, usually one that’s licensed, so in the past, this has been Solid Snake, Korra, Deadpool, and plenty more.

Check back in for regular updates about the next season, and let us know in the comments what you hope to see in Season 3.
