Fortnite: Season 5 will launch a couple of days later than originally expected — July 12 instead of July 10.
Epic Games revealed the updated Fortnite: Season 5 start time on Reddit. “We want to give you a heads-up on the exact ending time. You may have seen the timer update in-game, which means we are giving you two more days to complete Season 4! Season 5 will begin on July 12th at 4 AM EDT (08:00 GMT),” the developer wrote.
The popular theory for the upcoming season of Fortnite is that a rocket launch is imminent. While some expect there to be more destruction on the map — similar to the meteor and Dusty Divot — others believe the rocket will lead to a new map on the moon.
