Fortnite is starting its latest season soon. You can find out when Chapter 5 Season 2 starts and what you should know about the content such as skins, changes to the map and leaks in our overview.
When does Chapter 5 Season 2 start? The expiry date is stated in every current Battle Pass. This time, Season 1 runs until March 8, 2024 at 8:00 a.m. – that’s a Friday. So you can expect a downtime on the same day at 8:00 a.m., which could then play Season 2 on the servers during the day. However, the duration and exact start time have not yet been confirmed.
In addition to the start time, there is also a new theme that will take its place in the upcoming season. Leakers have looked into the topic and think they know which skins you can expect.
Fortnite has also had LEGO since Chapter 5!

Everything about Chapter 5 Season 2 – live event, battle pass, leaks
Will there be a live event? Epic Games is currently taking a different approach when it comes to preparing live events. While such an event took place after almost every other season in Chapters 1 and 2, a live event currently only appears when a story-relevant event has to take place or a new chapter begins. We assume that Season 2 will not start with a live event.
What content comes in the Battle Pass? According to leakers, the theme for Season 2 has been set: “Greek Mythology”. The Battle Pass is not yet known, but dataminers believe that many ancient gods could make it into the Battle Pass.
Some examples are:
The examples are based on surveys conducted by Epic Games, which they usually use for new skins to find out which outfits players want most.
Are there any leaks for Chapter 5 Season 2? Yes, there are. In the data from the latest Fortnite update, leakers have found new monuments that could find space on the Season 2 map. Hypex, a reliable Fortnite data miner, has visualized the new construct for you:
You can see a stone hand that is glowing and wrapped in a chain. The chain holds a chest that is locked. Another model shows the chest in an open state. It may be possible that the chest is Pandora’s Box, which also appears in mythology.
Players may be able to unchain this massive chest and open it to obtain loot or perhaps divine powers to better fight against enemies.
Players still have a few days to complete their Battle Pass until the new season of Fortnite takes place. What do you think of the leaks and the idea behind Greek mythology? Let us find out in the comments!
