Season 5 of Fortnite is coming to an end soon, and Epic Games revealed on Tuesday that Chapter 2 Season 6 will begin in less than 10 days, with the so-called Zero Crisis Finale serving as the kickoff event. When Season 6 starts, players will be able to finish the finale at their own pace. There’s always time to enjoy all Season 5 has to provide, like the Battle Pass, before then.
Following the major Season 4 Galactus event, which pulled in a record number of players to Fortnite, the current season began on December 2. Marvel’s Galactus, Destroyer of Worlds, attempted to devour the earth, and those who took part in the event fought him.

The war ripped a hole in the fabric of truth, which served as the inspiration for Season 5’s Zero Point. Popular heroes, villains, and bounty hunters from big third-party franchises appeared in Fortnite during the season to assist players in protecting the Zero Point. A Zero Crisis is now on the horizon.
The Galactus finale was a live event in which players signed in or viewed together, but the Zero Crisis Finale would not be. The Season 5 finale will be a solo mission, according to Epic Games, with Season 6 launching on March 16. When a player first logs into Fortnite after it launches, they will play through the conclusion of Agent Jones’ mission.
Epic teases, “The aftermath of this event is sure to shape Reality as we know it.” Users can also watch the opener together before playing, even though the finale would not be a collective effort. Epic will include more details about the premiere stream in the near future.

Before March 16, there’s still a lot to do with the Fortnite Season 5 Battle Pass. Players can complete all remaining Season 5 quests this week, according to Epic, in order to access the remaining Season 5 perks, which include post-Level 100 Crystal Styles, The Child Back Bling, and the Breathless Blades Pickaxe. Exotic Weapons are still being sold by NPCs around the map for discounted gold bar values.
It’s unclear what will happen in the Fortnite Season 5 finale. However, dataminers found some obscure NPC dialogue in February that pointed at a major event in the near future. There were strange things happening near the Zero Point, according to Deadfire, and everything was “unstable,” according to Mancake.
The fact that the finale’s title includes the word “Crisis” adds to the disturbing nature of the situation. Whatever happens, it will be important. Season 6 of Fortnite is about to begin, and fans won’t want to miss it.
