Fortnite Season 6 is dropping into battle next week

Earlier today on their Twitter, Epic Games announced the start date for Season 6 of Fortnite.

The studio advised that we get in now to unlock those final few Battle Pass rewards, as Season 6 will be starting soon on September 27.

Thankfully we'll have a bit of help, with the added bonus of 400% Match XP all weekend, from now until 1pm UK time on September 24.


This is an especially exciting time for the mega-hit, with its popularity only increasing, and the Vice President of Epic Games teasing that a big event is incoming.

You can grab Fortnite on the App Store or on Switch if you haven't already. You could also try signing up for the Android beta if you're so inclined, but a full release still isn't available for the platform.
