Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 countdown – how to watch the start of the new season
Watch along as the new Fortnite season ticks away and gives way to the highly-anticipated Galactic Battle Star Wars adventure. Fortnite is about to tick over into a new season, and you can watch the countdown that guides us out of the Lawless era and into a new intergalactic one. The dawn of the Death Star is almost upon us, and if we're lucky, the Fortnite island will be all the better for it. The game is preparing to finally say a fond farewell to Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2, and while we loved wrestling Outlaw Keycards out of the mitts of Fletcher Kane and breaking into bank vaults across the map, it's time for an adventure that's a little bit more intergalactic. The Galactic Battle Star Wars season approaches, and the new Fortnite season's early patch notes have revealed a season that's stuffed to the brim with new cosmetics, NPCs, POIs and weapons to play with across an island under the thumb of the Empire. It's going to be a real blast, but hopefully it's a little better held-together than recent events have proven this season to be, after Fortnite matchmaking shockingly went down right before the game intended to plunge into its PlayStation Cup. Either way, there's heaps to prepare for, whether you're a player who takes the game as seriously as a heart attack or you just want to play dress-up and emote across the island. Thankfully, there's not long to wait, and the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 countdown has officially begun. Here's how you can watch along to the beginning of the incoming season. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 countdown The Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 countdown is now live, and is ticking down to the conclusion of Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3. There is no official countdown in-game from Epic Games, but YouTuber Logo Blocks is currently sharing a countdown that is set to end at 11pm PDT on Thursday, May 1, and 2am EDT / 7am BST on Friday, May 2, which is half an hour after the expected Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end time. The countdown won't yet run until the official arrival of the season as Fortnite is still yet to reveal how long it expects downtime to last, but as per our estimations when we explored the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 start time, we can expect the season itself to launch around 3.30am PDT / 6.30am EDT / 11.30am BST on Friday, May 2. The new season is set to issue a lot of changes to the island, and we're going to have to brace for their impact. Maybe go and rob a vault now, just for old times' sake.

When does Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end? Here's how long you have to complete the Battle Pass
There's not long left on Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2, meaning that its Battle Pass and new experiences are about to be blasted by the lasers from a TIE Fighter. Fortnite is set to jump into a major new season, but we have to say goodbye to the season that gave us Big Dill and Fletcher Kane first when the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end time rolls around. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 has seen players fully embrace lawlessness, and it has been a blast for many as they tear through their Outlaw Keycard quests and eat through the Chapter 6 Season 2 Battle Pass before it's too late. That 'too late' is approaching fast, though, as the incoming Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 promises a Star Wars -loaded experience packing new weapons, characters and POIs. There's clearly heaps to come yet, as it has now been confirmed that the likes of Darth Jar Jar and Emperor Palpatine are set to arrive in-game along with several new areas to explore, and fan hopes are high that the short Chapter 6 Season 3 length won't mean that the quality is skimped on. Of course, we need to say goodbye to the current season before then, which will be a shame for many who enjoyed getting stuck into bank vaults and scraps with Mortal Kombat 's Scorpion. After the most recent Fortnite 34.40 update downtime, we're in for the final stretch of the new season now, meaning that your chances to bag Fletcher Kane's medallion, unlock every Big Dill cosmetic and complete your quests are thinning as we speak. So, when can we expect the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end time? Here's what you need to know.

The Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end time is set as 10.30pm PDT on Thursday, May 1, and 1.30am EDT / 6.30am BST on Friday, May 2. We first explored the final day of the season when we took a look at the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 start date, which is evidenced by its appearance on the game's current Battle Pass page, denoted as the last day of play for the pass, which will coincide with the end of the season. We can expect that there will be some hefty downtime to follow, but at the very least, this is the exact moment that the game will close down for the season in preparation for the new one. You might want to get that Battle Pass finished before the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 end time, as it could be time to kiss Big Dill goodbye.
