As the end of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 approaches, rumors are swirling about a potential return to the beloved Chapter 1 island. Despite concerns of delays following layoffs at Epic Games, CEO Tim Sweeney has reassured players that the company is dedicated to delivering both “the next Fortnite season” and the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 5. This suggests that Season 5 may be shorter than usual, with Chapter 5 looming on the horizon.
↖ Fortnite Season 5 Start Date
Although the official start date of Fortnite Season 5 hasn’t been confirmed, clues point to November 3, 2023, as the likely launch date. The Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass is set to end on November 3, 2023, at 2 AM ET, meaning Season 5 will likely kick off immediately after the usual maintenance downtime.
↖ What Changes Could Be Coming in Season 5?
While Epic Games has yet to reveal official details, there are several hints that provide some insight into the Season 5 theme. A loading screen from Chapter 4 Season 4, titled “Within The Sanctum,” features the date July 12, 2018—the original release date of Chapter 1 Season 5, known as “Worlds Collide.” That season focused on the integration of elements from different realities, and the same theme could make a comeback in Season 5 of Chapter 4.
Moreover, Fortnite creators have received teaser packages from Epic Games, including a vinyl record featuring the Chapter 1 Season 5 map. This has fueled speculation that players could be revisiting elements of Chapter 1 in a nostalgic cycle through previous seasons before the anticipated transition to Chapter 5.
Instead of an influx of new weapons, Season 5 could bring back vaulted items from earlier seasons, offering long-time players a taste of the game’s past. This potential return to classic Fortnite gameplay has excited the community, especially those nostalgic for Chapter 1’s content.
↖ How Much Will the Season 5 Battle Pass Cost?
The Fortnite Season 5 Battle Pass will likely maintain the standard cost of 950 V-Bucks, which can be purchased for $7.99 USD or £6.99 GBP (1,000 V-Bucks). If you’re looking to progress quickly, the Battle Bundle upgrade is available for 2,800 V-Bucks (approximately $19.99 USD or £17.49 GBP), and will instantly propel you to Tier 25 on the Battle Pass.
It’s also important to avoid scams that promise free V-Bucks. Accumulating 950 V-Bucks through gameplay or purchases will be enough to unlock the Season 5 Battle Pass when it launches in November 2023.
↖ Conclusion
While Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5 is still a few weeks away, the potential return to Chapter 1’s island has sparked excitement among the Fortnite community. With hints from Epic Games and various leaks, players are eagerly anticipating what could be a nostalgic journey through Fortnite’s history before Chapter 5 begins.
