Find out when Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 3 will end, so you have an idea how much time you have left to unlock things in the Battle Pass.

One thing that makes the experience interesting in Fortnite is how different every chapter and season can feel. After all, devs tend to shake things up by vaulting and unvaulting weapons, adding new POIs and even NPCs you can interact with, among other mechanics.

In Chapter 6, Season 3, which is currently ongoing, for example, players have the chance to experience a season fully dedicated to Star Wars, with lightsabers as well as iconic skins from the franchise returning to the game.

Though the current season was only released a week ago, you may already be excited for when the next season drops. So, here’s when the current Fortnite season will end.

When does this Fortnite season end? Chapter 6, Season 3 details

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 3, is set to end on June 7, 2025.

Unlike the previous seasons, Chapter 6, Season 3 is confirmed to be a very short season that will only last for about a month. Instead of keeping us guessing of what’s to come, however, Epic has laid out all the details regarding the update schedule for this season.

Chapter 6, Season 3 is packed with Star Wars content.

The current ‘Galactic Battle’ season is set to include six major updates in total. Imperial Takeover, which dropped on May 2, 2025, was the first update that kickstarted this season’s launch, bringing Stormtroopers as well as Empire’s forces to the map.

Fitting to the season’s theme, the loot pool has also been updated, replacing all weapons with a plethora of different blasters. Not only that, but the X-Wing Starfighter and the TIE Fighter have also been made available, allowing you to devastate enemies from the skies.

Here’s a summary of all the updates that will arrive this season before it ends:

  • v35.00 (Chapter 6 Season 3) – May 2, 2025
  • The Pull of The Force – May 8, 2025
  • Chew On This – May 15, 2025
  • Mandalorian Rising – May 22, 2025
  • Star Destroyer Bombardment – May 29, 2025
  • The Final Showdown: Death Star Sabotage – June 7, 2025

Gameplay-wise, the current season is quite the shift from the previous one. The Kneecapper Bat may be gone for now, but with lightsabers being available in Chapter 6, Season 3, there’s certainly a lot more chaos in the fights thanks to force abilities.

Darth Vader’s Red Lightsaber, in particular, can help you send anyone to their doom as it lets you shock them with lightning.

Meanwhile, when it comes to cosmetics, Epic has added a Baby Yoda Kicks to the Item Shop. It’s a suitable addition given the current season’s theme, but with how much it’s priced, not everyone is happy with it.
