When Does Current Fortnite Battle Pass End?

The Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 1 Battle Pass introduced skins like Montague, Oscar, Valeria, and Peter Griffin. However, this pass won't be available forever. We break down exactly when the current Battle Pass disappears. Check out the exact end date for the current Fortnite Battle Pass season, so you can unlock all your rewards before time runs out. 

What Does the Fortnite Battle Pass Offer?

The Fortnite Battle Pass grants access to exclusive skins, gliders, pickaxes, wraps, emotes, and more cosmetic items. Players unlock these rewards by gaining Battle Stars through playing matches and completing seasonal quests.

There are over 100 tiers of content to work through. Those who purchase the premium 950 V-Bucks pass get significantly more cosmetics than the free version. Highlights from the Chapter 5 Season 1 pass include Vengeance Jones and Nisha outfit skins.

When Does Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Battle Pass End?

According to the in-game countdown timer, the Chapter 5, Season 1 Battle Pass ends on March 8th, 2024 at 2 AM Eastern Time. This gives players just over a week from the time of writing to max out their pass.

Make sure to collect any unearned cosmetics, Stars, and seasonal XP before March 8th hits. Otherwise, all unredeemed Chapter 5, Season 1 rewards will disappear once the season ends.

What Happens When a Season Ends?

The beginning of the Fortnite season always brings major changes to the island map along with a refreshed Battle Pass. For example, Chapter 5 Season 2 is expected to have a Greek mythology theme and introduce skins like Medusa and Zeus. 

Epic games usually release details on the next season in the weeks leading up to a new launch. This gives players insight into the upcoming cosmetics and changes to expect.

In the transition period between seasons, Fortnite sometimes has special limited-time events as a farewell to the previous season.
