Wondering when Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 will end and what’s on the horizon? Here’s everything you need to know!

Only a few weeks remain in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 before Epic Games turns the page and moves on to a new season. The current "Shock 'N Awesome" season launched on Aug. 7 with a bug invasion theme before shifting to the annual Fortnitemares Halloween event. However, it will all end relatively soon.

This article covers when Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 will end and explains what you can expect in the ensuing season.

When does Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 end?

Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 ends in

Pending any delays, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 will end on Saturday, Nov. 1. Although the precise time it will end is unclear, many leakers have reported that an event will transition the game into the next season. Those events typically occur around 2 p.m. ET before the game goes offline temporarily.

That is what we expect at this moment, but more accurate reports should arrive over the coming days. That timeframe gives you just under two weeks to complete the Season 4 Battle Pass and enjoy what time remains in the Fortnitemares event.

What can I expect in the next Fortnite season?

All reports over the past few months indicate that the successor to Chapter 6 Season 4 will be the second-ever "Mini-Season," this time revolving around The Simpsons. We saw something similar in between Season 2 and 3 with the Star Wars Galactic Battle Mini-Season. However, this time, another Disney IP will take center stage.

In an unlikely collaboration, The Simpsons will invade Fortnite with a map dedicated to Springfield and various characters from the iconic cartoon. A Glider based on the aliens, Kang and Kodos, leaked earlier this month, and more reports have begun to emerge regarding the Simpsons season.

Here is a summary of what we expect to see in Mini-Season 2:

  • It will feature "mash-up" skins
  • The rumored "companions" will debut
  • The landscape will be entirely based on Springfield

The sentiment around the upcoming Mini-Season is lukewarm, mainly because The Simpsons is not the most desirable collaboration. It's primarily occurring as a promotional opportunity during the show's 37th season. Overall, it hasn't been the most well-received crossover, but it will be interesting if nothing else.

That gives you an idea of what to expect once Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 ends on Nov. 1 and what will follow. Be sure to check back here for additional updates!
