Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3: What’s Next After Star Wars Season Ends?
It sounds like Fortnite might get a little bit super-powered next season.
Is the upcoming Fortnite season Chapter 6 Season 3 or Chapter 6 Season 4?
We don’t have a confirmed answer for this question right now, but since the Star Wars season is designated in the game’s metadata as Chapter 6 MS1 (mini-season 1), it stands to reason that next season will be called Season 3. It also implies, but does not confirm, plans for an additional mini-seasons later in Chapter 6.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 start date
Fortnite: Galactic Battle is currently scheduled to come to a close on June 7, with the new season slated to begin on the morning of June 8. But this season won’t end in the middle of the night, as most Fortnite seasons do.

Fortnite Star Wars season’s live finale event
As promised by Epic when the season began, the Star Wars Galactic Battle season will conclude with a live event in which players will storm the Death Star and confront Emperor Palpatine in order to end the Empire’s invasion of the island. This will be a true live event, like the ones that come at the end of each chapter, and it’ll take place on Saturday, June 7 at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET. This event will only happen once, so don’t be late.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 season theme
It’s rumored that the upcoming season of Battle Royale will be superhero themed, but in the more traditional capes-and-tights sort of way–with Midas running a school for superheroes, apparently. Word is that the new season will have a DC Comics bent, which makes sense with a new Superman film landing in July. And since Fortnite’s only existing Superman skin is permanently locked behind the Chapter 2 Season 7 battle pass from 2021, the rumors about a new item shop Superman make perfect sense.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 battle pass skins
It’s expected that the new season will have a normal battle pass that includes several Fortnite-original characters and one or two collab skins. It’s very likely that a new corrupted version of Daigo will be on the pass, since the cinematic at the end of Season 2 showed Daigo entering the magic portal in the northeastern part of the island and transforming into a very different body. Beyond that, the only rumored collab skin for the battle pass is Robin–yes, we’re talking about Batman’s pal here.
Gameplay changes in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3
All the rumors and leaks about the upcoming season being superhero-themed also mention that superpowers will be a key part of your arsenal in the new season. Not gadgets like we had in last year’s Marvel season, but rather actual super-powered abilities–stuff like the mythic Jujutsu Kaisen and Dragon Ball items, or Avatar’s elemental abilities.
Fortnite OG Season 4
Season 4 of Fortnite OG will also begin on June 8, and that may be because the original Season 4 also had a superhero theme. While Fortnite OG will certainly stick with the loot pool and map that the original Season 4 had, we can’t help but wonder if there will be story connections between OG and standard Battle Royale given the simultaneous start dates.
Meanwhile, Epic has seemingly been teasing the return of The Visitor, whose arrival with the meteor in the original Season 4 kicked off Fortnite’s plot, with this remix of an old Seven-related music track that appears to have a modified version of The Visitor’s head and shoulders on the cover art. The Visitor would have been a prime candidate for a remix even without that tease, so no one would be surprised if he appeared on the new OG Pass.
New Lego Fortnite Pass
The new Lego Pass will also begin on June 8, and we have no rumors or anything about what’s in store, beyond one incredibly cryptic line from the end of a blog post about new real Lego sets based on Fortnite things: “Stay tuned for super-scale news in the LEGO Fortnite universe, happening later in June!” The emphasis on “super” is theirs.
Given that little clue, and the launch date, we have every reason to expect the new Lego Pass will tie in with this hypothetical superhero theme. Given DC’s close relationship with Lego, it wouldn’t be surprising at all for one of that brand’s heroes to pop up here.
