Players are wondering if there’s a live event today in the lead-up to Fortnite chapter 4 season 2. Here’s the information we have.

It’s been just over three months since Epic Games launched a new chapter. For the most part, chapter 4 season 1 has been a huge success with the player base.

Not only did we get a brand new map, but there were also several noteworthy features and items that were added to the game.

The Shockwave Hammer and the addition of Augment Realities have been the highlights for the majority of the player base.

Hopefully, they’ll both be available in Fortnite chapter 4 Season 2. Speaking of the new season, players are wondering whether there will be a live event to conclude the season. Here’s what we know.

When is the Fortnite Live Event 2023? Chapter 4 Season 2

Data miners always leak if there will be a Fortnite live event. Typically, a few hours before a live event is scheduled to begin, the files are decrypted and then leaked on Twitter.

Event files are almost always added in the final update of the season. There aren’t any event files added in the 23.50 files.

If there is an event, Epic Games will always announce when it’ll take place a few days beforehand. However, that hasn’t happened.

That means, unfortunately, that there will be no 2023 Fortnite live event to conclude season 1 and lead into Fortnite chapter 4 season 2.

However, it’s looking like season 2 will have a lot of new content and features which we’ll be covering during downtime, so be sure to check back here to see all of our coverage on the new season.

Epic Games have clarified the confusion around the Fortnite chapter 4 season 2 start date and the end date for season 1.

It’s been three months since Epic Games released Fortnite chapter 4 season 1. Thankfully, we’ve seen some solid additions this season.

Alongside a brand new map for Battle Royale, Epic Games updated Fortnite’s game engine to Unreal Engine 5.1 which included better graphics, changes to current settings, and more.

We also saw the release of one of the best items that have ever been added to Fortnite Battle Royale, the Shockwave Hammer.

The introduction of Reality Augments has also been a welcomed addition, although some would argue some of the Reality Augments are overpowered.

However, the general consensus regarding the Reality Augments is that they should remain in the game in chapter 4 season 2.

Although we’ve had some good additions with the release of chapter 4, players have been looking forward to season 2 for a few weeks now.

Players have been looking for the release date for Fortnite chapter 4 season 2 along with the end date for chapter 4 season 1.

However, there has been conflicting information in regard to the start date for season 2. However, Epic Games have now provided clarity on the situation.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 End Date

We’ve known for a few weeks that Epic Games brought the end date for Fortnite chapter 4 season 1 forwards. On February 15th, the Fortnite Status Twitter account tweeted information regarding the new end date.

They announced season 1 would end a few days earlier than previously announced, now ending on March 8th, 2023.

Although players have been confused with the start date of the new season, we know for certain when season 1 will be ending.

New Season of Fortnite Start/Release Date – Chapter 4 Season 2

Due to the fact that Epic Games stated that season 1 ends on March 8th, players assumed that the new season of Fortnite would release on the same date.

However, after much confusion today, Epic Games have confirmed that Fortnite chapter 4 season 2 will start on Friday, March 10th, 2023.

Here’s the tweet on the Fortnite Status Twitter account confirming the start date of the new season:

Epic Games have announced a brand new Fortnite event, Most Wanted. Here’s a look at the event and all the quests and free rewards available including the Gold Blooded Axe skin.

We’ve not had much in the way of new content for the past few weeks in Fortnite. We did see some new content in the v23.30 update, but aside from another collaboration, that was nothing substantial.

Here’s a look at all of the cosmetics that have been leaked in today’s v23.40 Fortnite patch update.

Epic Games have seen huge success since the release of Fortnite Battle Royale back in Q3 of 2017. They’ve managed to cash in on the success through cosmetics.

Not only do players purchase a new Battle Pass for a new Fortnite season every few months, but the player base also spends money on cosmetics available in the item shop.

Alongside their original skin concepts, collaborations with the likes of Travis Scott, Dragon Ball Z, and other celebrities, content creators, and gaming titles have seen them make billions from cosmetics.

Players can purchase individual cosmetics that are part of a set or purchase entire bundles. There are also other packs like the Starter Packs that are available to purchase with real money instead of V-Bucks, Fortnite’s currency.

With every major Fortnite update that’s released, Epic adds in new cosmetics to the game files. These cosmetics are then made available in the item shop within the next couple of weeks, usually before the next major patch.

With today’s new v23.40 Fortnite update, there have been a number of cosmetics have been added including a Valentine’s day skin for 2023.

Fortnite Valentine’s 2023 Skin – Folly

Epic Games have added a new bundle for Valentine’s day 2023 which includes the Folly skin along with a wrap, back bling, and pickaxe.

Here’s a look at Folly:

Leaked Upcoming Fortnite v23.40 Cosmetics

Players will be able to get their hands on a free skin by completing the Most Wanted quests. The skin that’ll be available is the Cold Blooded Ace Outfit.

Here’s a look at all of the other cosmetics that were leaked in today’s update:

The post All Fortnite v23.40 Leaked Valentine’s Day Skins & Cosmetics appeared first on Fortnite Insider.

Epic Games have introduced a number of new exotic weapons in today’s v23.40 update.

Back in Chapter 2 season 6, Epic Games released their first-ever batch of Exotic items. Exotic items are upgraded versions of current items available in the game.

The only difference is the exotic items will have unique attributes that’ll give them an edge over a legendary version of the same weapon or item.

We haven’t seen any new exotics in Fortnite Battle Royale for some time. However, that’s about to change with today’s v23.40 patch update.

Data miners have leaked five exotic items from today’s update. Here’s a look at each and its unique attribute.

Chapter 4 Season 1 Fortnite New Exotic Weapons

Heisted Explosive Assault Rifle

The Explosive Assault Rifle exotic weapon is the Red Eye Assault Rifle which fires explosive projectiles.

Heisted Run ‘N’ Gun SMG

This Exotic SMG is infused with Slap and reloads your magazine while sprinting.

Heisted Breacher Shotgun Exotic

Exotic Heavy Shotgun that is perfect for destroying walls and cover. (destroys builds instantly)

Heisted Accelerant Shotgun

Exotic Maven Shotgun that increases movement speed and fire rate as you damage enemies.

Blink Mag SMG Exotic

Exotic Twin Mag SMG that grants Zero Point Dash while double jumping for a few seconds after reloading.

A new Fortnite level up pack has been leaked by data miners. The latest pack contains the Axion Sentinel “Galaxy Knight” skin and matching cosmetics.

Epic Games release new cosmetics in the item shop on a regular basis. They’re either available to purchase with V-Bucks or with real money.

Each season, there are several bundles or packs that are available to purchase. One of those packs is the Level Up Quest Pack.

These packs can be purchased from V-Bucks from the item shop but are only available for a limited time. When purchasing these level up quest packs, you’ll unlock the skin straight away.

However, in order to unlock the other cosmetics, you need to collect the level up tokens that are found throughout the Fortnite map.

Prior to today’s v23.40 patch update, data miners stated that a new Fortnite level up quest pack will be added to the files and made available to purchase.

A Galaxy Knight Axion Sentinel skin level up quest pack has now been leaked. Here’s a look at all of the cosmetics in the pack.

Axion Sentinel Galaxy Knight Fortnite Skin

Epic Games release skin concepts in their skin survey to get an idea of what skins the Fortnite community would be willing to purchase.

One of those skins was a “Galaxy Knight” skin. That skin is now the feature of the latest level up quest pack. Here’s a look at the concept skin:

Here’s a look at the Axion Sentinel skin in-game:

And here’s a look at the other two skin styles:

The other cosmetics in the pack are:

Epic Games have announced a new Fortnite patch update today, v23.40. Here’s everything you need to know about the 3.81 release including early patch notes, the server downtime time, and more.

It’s been two weeks since the last major Fortnite update. The last patch, 23.30, introduced yet another collaboration with bost Son Gohan and Piccolo making their way onto the Fortnite Island.

Five new Reality Augments were also added to the game including Icy Slide, an augment that gives players a speedy boost while sliding.

Apart from the above, the only other major change we had was the weekly quests. In previous seasons of Fortnite, weekly quests would not expire.

However, Epic Games decided to change that with the launch of Chapter 4 Season 1 with the weekly quests expiring when the new set of quests was unlocked.

This was changed with weekly quests no longer expiring. That means players can now complete a set of weekly quests at any time until the end of the current season.

Content has been fairly dry for the past week with the only change coming on Tuesday with the Slurp Juice making its way out of the vault.

Thankfully, Epic Games have announced a new Fortnite update for today, 23.40. Here’s all the information you need to know heading into the latest patch from the time the servers will go down for scheduled maintenance to the early patch notes.

Fortnite Servers Downtime – Are the Servers Down on February 14th, 2023?

A new Fortnite update means the servers going down for scheduled maintenance for a couple of hours in order to apply the new patch release.

Each new update is announced on the official Fortnite Status Twitter account, and that’s no different with the release of the 3.81 (v23.40) patch.

Epic has announced that the Fortnite servers will go down for scheduled maintenance at 4 AM ET with matchmaking being disabled shortly before.

Here’s the tweet:

As with any Fortnite update, Epic never releases information regarding when the servers will be back up. Based on the last few patch releases, we’re doing to assume the servers will be down for approximately two hours.

That means the servers should be back online at roughly 6 AM ET / 11 AM GMT. We’ll update this when the servers are officially back online.

v23.40 (3.81) Update Download File Size

Players usually look to see how large or small the latest Fortnite update download file size is. As soon as the information is available, we’ll update this with the download size on each platform.

Fortnite Update 3.81 (v23.40) Patch Notes Today – 14th February 2023
