Fortnite Chapter 7 is just hours away, and its start date and time have been revealed. Epic Games released the new chapter after the live event on Saturday, adding lots of new content. Unfortunately, this content is not available yet, which is why many players are wondering when the new Fortnite season and chapter will begin.
Many aspects of the new update have already been revealed, including the new Battle Pass. Now, the only question that remains is when we will actually get to play Fortnite Chapter 7, and how long the downtime for it will be.
When is Fortnite Chapter 7 coming out?
The current Fortnite downtime will last at least 7 hours, and servers should return by 9:15 PM ET. Originally, Epic intended for the downtime to last five hours, but that was changed for the event.
