Here’s the exact time when ‘Fortnite Remix’ ends and Chapter 6, Season 1 begins

Fortnite’s the current ‘Remix’ season has been incredibly popular, but it’s coming to an end. Not only is the season coming to an end on Saturday, the new season will be the first in Chapter 6. Fortnite players will get a brand new map, new movement mechanics, a brand new Battle Pass and more this weekend.

Chapter 6 Season 1 is called ‘鬼 Hunters’ and will feature an Asian/anime theme with lots of new locations with a distinctly Japanese look, including pink cherry blossoms, Asian markets and creatures that look like they’ve sprung from a Studio Ghibli film. There will also be Yokai demons, Titans, new mystical powers and the arrival of King Kong and Godzilla. A giant floating turtle will be one of the cool new additions. Not only is it adorable, it moves around the map. New movement mechanics include rolling and wall running, making this the most parkour of them all Fortnite seasons.

Before Chapter 5 ends, players can take part in the big season-ending event, The Finale, which will not only be a massive Juice WRLD concert, but also feature the return of The Device. This is quite a strange event as the rapper – real name Jarad Anthony Higgins – passed away in 2019. A new Snoop Dogg track is also part of the event, which you can read more about right here. A free Juice WRLD skin and other goodies are available in the store now, but only until the end of the season.

When does chapter 5 end and chapter 6 begin?

The official end time for Chapter 5 and this ‘Remix’ season is midnight on Saturday, November 30, but since this is the end of an entire chapter, it’s also possible that the season will end directly after The Finale event. If that’s the case, we’ll see the season end and the servers go down sometime after 9 p.m. 11am PT / 2pm ET as the event is about 20 minutes long. It is possible that the game will also remain live until the evening when the servers go down around 10 p.m. PT / at 1 a.m. ET.

The new chapter will go live on Sunday morning subject to any hiccups, and players will be able to update their game the moment the servers go back online and dive into the map. Without official confirmation, we can only speculate when Chapter 5 will end, but it’s a safe bet that you’ll be sailing around the new map on Sunday morning. I’ll update this post if we get a more specific end time or if the servers go down.

Here is the trailer:

The other exciting news is the return of OG Fortnite, which includes the game’s original map and will let players battle it out in original locations with the game’s original loot. According to Epic Games, you will also be able to play through older seasons. This new (old) mode will go live permanently on December 6th.

It’s an exciting weekend for Fortnite, basically. I’m excited to get in!
