When does Fortnite Chapter 5 season 2 begin?
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5 will begin on Wednesday, December 2. An exact start time has yet to be announced, but from the launches of the previous season, we can expect Season 5 to begin around 2 h PT / 4 h HE December 2. New seasons tend to go live very early in the morning on release day, so it's likely players will be able to log into the game before sunrise on Wednesday. We'll update this article accordingly once Epic Games officially announces the start time for Season 5.
Season 5 Map Leaks
There is no concrete Season 5 map leak yet, and it is unlikely that anything will appear until the event happens. However, Galactus is not called the Eater of Worlds for nothing. Large parts of the current map will likely be destroyed in the coming battle. Most people expect Marvel POIs to be removed entirely as the Marvel crossover season ends, so say goodbye to Stark Industries and other small POIs like Ant Manor and Panther's Prowl.
Fortnite native locations will likely see changes as well. Existing locations could be completely wiped off the map, and there could even be some crazy things happening with cracks that bring new locations to the map. If upstate New York can be transported to Battle Royale Island, there is no question that new places will appear out of nowhere.
What does the Season 5 Battle Pass come with?
The Season 5 Battle Pass has yet to be revealed, but we know of three accompanying skins. The first two are original Fortnite skins, which means Season 5 won't be a crossover season like Season 4 was with Marvel. One skin is a girl dressed in pink and black armor, and the second is a creperie with a cartridge belt and a pistol on her hip.
The most important skin that has been leaked, however, is the Mandalorian, which features prominently in the Season 5 Battle Pass promotional image. The Mandalorian skin will function like Deadpool and Aquaman in previous seasons, requiring you to complete weekly challenges to unlock it. Baby Yoda is also pictured, and you can outfit him as a back bling and take him with you to matches. The rest of the Battle Pass skins and items have yet to be revealed, but we'll find out what that entails soon.
What is Fortnite Crew?
Fortnite Crew is a new monthly subscription that gives you a bunch of in-game items. For $ 11,99 each month you get the Battle Pass, a monthly stipend of 1000 V-Bucks, and a monthly crew pack that includes a exclusive skin and accessories. The crew's first monthly skin is called Galaxia, and it comes with a matching pickaxe and bling back. You can only get these items if you pay for Fortnite Crew, so dedicated Fortnite players may want to consider signing up for the subscription. It will go live with Chapter 2 of Season 5 on December 5.
Fortnite is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S and mobile devices. For more information on Chapter 2 of Season 5, visit the official Fortnite website.
