When does Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start? Here's when you can expect the rumoured bug invasion
As Fortnite gears up for a new season, it's been a whirlwind of live events and fresh cosmetics before the game transitions to a new theme on the island.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 has been an absolute riot thus far, and we're not ready to wrap things up just yet with the upcoming Super Showdown live event. The past few months have seen a plethora of offerings from the game, including the Fantastic Four cosmetics making their mark alongside Superman's debut in the Super Battle Pass, aligning the game with a summer filled with pop culture heroes.
It's been thoroughly enjoyable immersing ourselves in this season's superhero theme, particularly as these characters are experiencing a cultural resurgence. The newly introduced characters from this significant content update have quickly become familiar faces, and their unique abilities have added an exciting dimension to gameplay. Notably, Morgan Myst's raven flurries and Killswitch's pistols, which allowed players to perform Max Payne-style aerial dives, were standout features. While Fortnite may have missed an opportunity for a crossover with the Rockstar and Remedy franchise, we're more than happy with what we've got.
Change is certainly on the cards, with the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date fast approaching and a slew of new gameplay additions anticipated to roll out following the major transition. So what exactly can we look forward to? Here's everything you need to know about the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date
The Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date is set for Thursday, August 7 at 3am PDT / 6am EDT / 11am BST. We first uncovered this confirmed release date when we delved into the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 end date.
The commencement time of the season is based on the confirmed conclusion time of the current season as shown on the game's Battle Pass page, coupled with an estimated five-hour downtime, similar to what we experienced when Chapter 6 Season 3 launched.
The upcoming season still holds many secrets, including whether the rumours of an intergalactic bug invasion hold any truth – but we can almost guarantee it'll be a blast. Bid farewell to your favourite superpowers before they're consigned to the archives.

Fortnite Power Rangers skins officially teased – Epic Games starts teasing after Halo Outfit reveal
Fortnite's Power Rangers crossover has been officially teased by Epic Games, it has been confirmed, with the company hinting at the arrival of the Battle Pass skins We might have anticipated new crossovers in the upcoming Fortnite season, but it appears Epic Games has given us an early glimpse behind the scenes. Fortnite has truly outdone itself with the Super Showdown event, which saw Superman swoop in to save the day and humiliate Mask Maker Daigo on the island (a significant event if you're one of the few still following Fortnite's ongoing storyline), and players seem ready for something fresh and thrilling. Fortunately, that seems to be exactly what they're going to get. The Super season is drawing to a close soon, and if leaks and hints are anything to go by, it will bring a swarm of alien bugs – after the colossal Super Battle Pass and Fantastic Four cosmetics, it's time for something a bit more gooey and sticky. However, this doesn't mean collaborations and cosmetics will slow down; leakers and fans are keeping a keen eye on new teasers and reveals hinting at some iconic appearances in the next season, including in the Battle Pass. You read correctly – it seems a Fortnite Power Rangers and Halo collaboration is on the cards. Introducing All Out Gaming The Fortnite Halo crossover officially announced The first hint for Fortnite's Chapter 6 Season 4 cosmetics come in the form of a new map teaser image that Epic Games has shared on Twitter, featuring a mysterious new POI with steaming holes in the ground oozing purple liquid – under investigation by two UNSC Spartans in red and blue armour, clearly indicating more Halo collaborations to come to the game. We've seen the Fortnite Master Chief skin return recently, and we can likely expect him to reappear once again as these two new skins have been confirmed, and with the new POI getting a glimpse in the image, we can expect them to appear in the next season. It's an unexpected way for Fortnite to reveal this new crossover with the Xbox franchise, especially as the company follows up with a tweet that announces that the new skins will be coming to the game as part of the Battle Pass. It's a big win for fans. Fortnite Power Rangers crossover leak A new Fortnite Power Rangers crossover tease has appeared online, and in a rather hefty surprise, it has come directly from Epic Games itself, and as a direct result as the latest Fortnite Halo crossover reveal. The official Fortnite Twitter account has responded to a fan in the replies of the new UNSC skin announcement asking for the company to confirm a new Power Rangers crossover – with a few suggestive emojis. This means nothing concrete in theory, but in practice, it's all that players need to know. Moreover, we've spotted new leaks for the Battle Pass, with one leak endorsed by @ShiinaBR suggesting that Tommy Oliver will be the level 100 skin in the Pass, and the Megazord will be the Secret Skin. It's not confirmed yet, but this would be a real delight for fans. This tweet and associated leak seem to confirm that a Fortnite Power Rangers crossover is in the pipeline, and as this official hint isn't likely to be some sort of error, we can assume that this is due to land in Chapter 6 Season 4. It's incredibly thrilling, particularly as Fortnite has had its own encounter with Megazord-style skins in Mecha Team Leader... just saying.

Ozzy Osbourne's daughter-in-law shows the 'loving and goofy' side to the Prince of Darkness as she vows to take care of grieving widow Sharon
To the outside world and his millions of fans, he was known as the Prince of Darkness, an outspoken and talented rocker whose outrageous antics would garner as much, if not more, attention than his vocal abilities. Yet those closest to Ozzy Osbourne saw a different side to the musician, with the Black Sabbath star 'loving and goofy' with those he held close. Praising the doting grandfather in a heartfelt tribute was his daughter-in-law Aree, as she mused: 'The world got a rock star but we got an ice lolly loving, goofy, big hearted guy who made us laugh like no other.' In an Instagram post on Sunday, Aree - who married Ozzy's son Jack in 2023 - shared a slew of adorable family snaps that showed the rocker enjoying quality time with his grandchildren. Ozzy, who died last month aged 76, was seen playing with Jack's children and beaming broadly as he spent time with his family. In one sweet snap, he was seen alongside wife Sharon, 72, who Aree vowed to look out for as she grieves the loss of her husband. Aree penned: 'I'm pretty sure I have the coolest father in law around, and the best papa to my kids. 'The world got a rockstar but we got an ice lolly loving, goofy, big hearted guy who made us laugh like no other. 'He was always in my corner and I forever am thankful to him for raising my husband and blessing me w my family. We got Nana always, Papa. 'Keep giving us all those signs from above ✨We'll keep your name loud, your stories alive, and your love wrapped around us like armor. Forever our guy.' Ozzy was at heart a family man, with six children and 10 grandchildren. He shares Jessica and Louis with his first wife, Thelma Riley, whom he was married to from 1971 to 1982. He also adopted her son, Elliot. Ozzy later became a grandparent to Jessica's children: Isabelle, Kitty and Harry, and Louis' kids, Elijah and Maia. He married Sharon in 1982 and the went on to have three children together: Aimee , Kelly and Jack. Jack shares three children with first wife Lisa Stelly: Pearl, Andy, and Minnie. He welcomed daughter Maple with Aree in 2022. Kelly shares son Sidney with her fiancée Sid Wilson. Ozzy's relationship was well documented in MTV's The Osbournes, which followed the lives of Ozzy, Sharon and two of their children - Jack, 39, and Kelly, 40. Their eldest, Aimee, 41, chose not to star in the reality show as she tried to carve out her own career in the music industry. She has continued to keep out of the spotlight in recent years, yet Jack and Kelly previously revealed that they were not meeting up behind the scenes. Speaking in a podcast chat recorded weeks before they reunited for their father Ozzy's funeral, Jack revealed that he and Aimee were 'not close at all'. Jack said on the Disrespectfully podcast: 'Back then she really wanted to be a musician and the kind of musician she wanted to be was like a Fiona Apple, Mazzy Star, like this kind of obscure, mysterious, moody… 'And she deemed doing a show on MTV as low-hanging fruit. She was like, "I'm not going to be seen riding coat-tails," kind of thing, that's how she perceived it. 'Once the show was hugely successful I think she was kind of like, "Well I can't now come on because I don't want to be seen even more so as jumping on the bandwagon". And she dug her heels in and wanted to be relatively private and obscure.' While Aimee has remained away from the limelight compared to her siblings, she previously released music under the name ARO, her initials. The heartfelt tribute touched fans of the Prince of Darkness Jack revealed on the podcast they weren't on close terms when he was quizzed on whether Aimee regretted not taking part in the family's reality series. He admitted: 'I've never had the conversation with her, we're not close at all. We don't have a great relationship, she'll be the first to tell you that, so it's no secret. 'I've never asked her outright, "Do you regret it'" I think there must be a level of like, "Hey, my life would have probably been different than what it is if I'd done that", so I don't know, I think I would feel like I would have regretted it.' Aimee courageously put herself in the spotlight for her beloved father at his funeral procession last month. The Black Sabbath rocker's funeral cortege travelled through his hometown of Birmingham, passing thousands of fans who lined the streets. Her brave decision to step into the limelight and pay respects with the world also forced her to put differences aside with her estranged sister Kelly. Kelly and Aimee have had a fraught relationship for years, but were pictured with their devastated mother and brother for the rock legend's send off. In recent years the vastly-different siblings had admitted they weren't on speaking terms, with Kelly saying in an interview they just 'didn't understand each other.' Kelly appeared on the Dax Shepard podcast Armchair Expert in 2021 and revealed that she and her older sister had been estranged for a long time. 'We don't talk,' Kelly said. 'We're just really different. She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her.' Meanwhile, back in 2015 Aimee shared with The Independent that her and Kelly were not on close terms. 'I wouldn't say there is an ease between us, but there is an acceptance,' she said. 'Do we socialise? No.' The siblings put aside their differences, however, to be together at Ozzy's side in his final hours. They announced the rocker's death in a heartbreaking statement that read: 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.'

I wanted a lowkey wedding so didn't bother with a dress or cake, trolls say a broke uni party would look better
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A COUPLE who opted for a budget-friendly wedding shared the details of their savvy day. However, not everyone was a fan of the scrimping and saving, with some people comparing the occasion to a "broke uni party". Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 TikTok user Amie shared an insight into the various ways she and her husband saved on their wedding day Credit: tiktok/@amie_barron In a TikTok video that amassed over 200,000 views, Amie Barron (@amie_barron) broke down the steps she and her groom took to pinch pennies. With the average wedding costing £200,500, the pair made a conscious effort to cut down on various aspects. Amie joked that some of the extreme measures "would put people in a coma". Veering from tradition The bride decided to opt out of the wedding dress tradition, instead choosing a comfy everyday outfit. "We didn't dress up. We wore flannels, jeans, and boots," she said, sharing a picture with her husband from the big day. Amie and her bridal party also did their own hair and make up for the occasion. And the TikToker joked that she also took her shoes off "as soon as I said 'I do'." While the couple still forked out for a venue for the day, Amie explained that they saved by holding the ceremony and reception in the same room. And the venue in question was the party room at their local library. For the food, the couple decided to skip out on the "fancy meal and fancy cake". I was fuming when I found out the reason my family hadn't RSVP-ed to my wedding - now they're uninvited Amie shared an image of the simple cake they opted for instead, which featured a simple Mr. & Mrs. topper, showing the couple's love for video games and reading. And this passion for gaming also played a major part in the day as the couple went home early to play Fortnite. They did however enjoy some dancing to a playlist Amie made in advance, skipping out on the band or DJ debate. "We didn't want anything big or fancy," she explained, revealing the day went perfectly. However, TikTok users were not sold on the budget-friendly approach. Average cost of a wedding in 2025 Recent research by Hodge reveals the dream of getting married can come with a hefty price tag, reaching more than £20,000. Food - £6,000 Honeymoon - £4,329 Wedding outfits - £3,500 Entertainment - £2,000 Engagement ring - £1,948 Flowers - £1,110 Wedding ring - £1,000 Wedding transport - £700 Total = £20,587 Unimpressed reactions "Seen broke uni parties organised better," wrote one viewer. "Why bother? Just sign the paperwork," pointed out another follower. "Playing Fortnite after your wedding must be the saddest thing I've ever heard," commented a third person. More on weddings Another bride shared how her mother-in-law wore white to her wedding and excluded her from photos "in case it didn't work out". One woman was set on a three-course meal for her wedding but ended up with a fast food buffet of fried chicken. And a monstrosity of a wedding cake that still leaves the bride in tears after paying £300. Plus, tips on how to say no to being a bridesmaid without upsetting the bride. A mother-in-law was slammed by bride for wearing an identical wedding gown.
