When does this season of Fortnite end?

The current Fortnite season end date.

  • The current season of Fortnite is Absolute Doom
  • It is based on Marvel heroes and villains
  • This could be the last season of chapter 5

Fortnite is still around, lurking in the background of many players’ libraries. Whether you’re a hardcore player or not, you can usually tell what’s hot by what toys they’re adding and who they’re inviting. The Fortnite team has included big names like Thanos the Mad Titan and the unwavering underground assassin superstar John Wick.

With each new season that arrives, the game changes in various ways and you risk losing anything you have earned and not spent or any uncompleted missions. The clock is ticking and who knows what the next seasons will bring?



The current season features Fortnite’s partnership with Marvel called Absolute Doom. While this may be a missed opportunity to throw in some space marines and hellish creatures, they’ve tried to make up for it by making Dr. Doom a present-day threat. Of course, to fight the bad guy, you need a hero, and the game has been generous enough to let players play the part.

They have access to costumes and gear from big names like Captain America, Black Panther, Wolverine, Warmachine and more. However, there are only so many opportunities left to fight the evil doctor and put an end to absolute ruin.

How does a Fortnite season (Battle Pass) work?

Despite all the dazzling and dizzying transformations it’s gone through, Fortnite’s seasonal system has been there since the game’s first year of launch. It was designed as a way to keep things fresh, to keep players coming back, and to somehow reset their progress each time. This gave them a reason to revisit and rebuild themselves with bells and whistles while trying out new mechanics, features, and new maps.



This is more commonly known as the Battle Pass system. What you do is purchase a season pass and this serves as a way to track your progress as you play, complete activities, and generally wander around. There are timed events to keep you motivated and entice you with limited chances of getting certain items, as well as a store that constantly rotates stock.

Of course, if you have access to the universal cheat code known as “a lot of money,” you can simply purchase whatever you want when it becomes available.

The seasons are not consistent in their timelines, and the latest structure is broken up into chapters, each of which contains several seasons within it. Each season tends to last about three months: we are still halfway through Chapter 5, Season 4: Absolute Doom.

According to the official Fortnite website, Absolute Doom is scheduled to end on November 2. However, these dates are not set in stone and may change based on player response, development plans, and technical issues. While unconfirmed, there are posts suggesting that the next season will see a return to OG Fortnite (the original maps, avatars, and mechanics) before Chapter 6 begins sometime later, with a theme/partnership TBD.
