A new mini-event is about to hit Fortnite in the game’s next update. Here is everything we know as of now.

It seems like the popular Battle Royale, Fortnite, is spoiling us. It was recently leaked that the game will be hosting a mini-event with its next update. This comes just days after a new season began, making players feel like Fortnite is giving them more than they ever bargained for.

Here is everything we know about Fortnite's upcoming mini-event.

New mini-event to premiere in Fortnite with the game's next update

Fortnite is always throwing fans curveballs. New weapons, new items and more are always being introduced into the game with new updates. In fact, back in the day, the game used to have a new update every single week that included something new for players to indulge in.

While those weekly updates have become a bit more spaced out over the years, it has still not stopped Fortnite from giving fans elite content.

And now, just days after Chapter 6, Season 4 began, Fortnite is giving fans a brand new mini-event with its new update. So, what do we know about the event? Is there a release date? Will it be a part of the story going on within the game?

Everything we know about the new Fortnite mini-event

Unfortunately, there is not much information released about the upcoming Fortnite mini-event. Popular leaker, HYPEX, posted the news earlier today (June 16, 2025) on his Twitter, but other than that, there has been no release date or additional information on the upcoming mini-event.

Surely, though, it will have something to do with the story, as the game loves to add to its lore as frequently as it can.

Simply wait until you see that there will be downtime within the game, and then you will know that the next day will include a mini-event. Fortnite could also release something about the event, too. You never know.
