Fortnite has now announced an official date for the start of Season 3 Chapter 2. It is clear: Season 2 will be extended. We will show you when the season starts and what to expect until then.
When does Season 3 start? Epic Games has postponed the start of the next season. Originally, it was supposed to start on April 30.
It has now been officially confirmed that Season 3 will start on June 4, 2020. They announced this on their official page.
What can we expect before the start of Season 3?
Epic has not only confirmed the start date for Season 3 but also provided a few hints about what we can expect until the end of Season 2.
There will be some updates
What can we expect in the updates? Epic Games stated that several updates are coming before the start of Season 3. With these patches, they aim to bring gameplay options, new challenges, bonus XP, and other surprises.
When these things will be implemented in the game is still unknown.
Will there be Overtime Challenges again?
What challenges could come? New challenges are supposed to come, which can be completed before the start of Season 3.
It could involve Overtime Challenges, where you can unlock style variants for the Battle Pass skins. But don’t forget to choose your style variants for the Ghost or Shadow teams.
This has been the case in every season. Even in the last season, we received Overtime Challenges.
Finally, there are bonus XP
How could the XP bonus be implemented? Another change that can be expected before the end of Season 2 is bonus experience points. We are supposed to receive a bonus there.
How this bonus will work is still unclear. It could be that the XP boost will be activated and remain until the end of the season, as Epic stated on their official page that there will be a possibility to unlock all gold variants of the Battle Pass skins.
To unlock the gold variants of the skins, a high level is required. The golden style variant for the last skin is only unlocked at level 340.
The extension could definitely be worth it if you want to unlock all style variants for the Battle Pass skins in Season 2. We have summarized all further info about the end of Season 2 and the start of Season 3 for you.
