Fortnite Season 10 is coming to an end, and that means another live event is about to happen. Ahead of the big day, a massive countdown timer has appeared above the Rocket in Dusty Depot. Provided nothing changes, the process is expected to finish October 13 at 2 p.m. EDT.
As is traditionally the case, all in-game TVs feature the countdown timer as well. There are currently no sounds or static effects associated with the message that players should be aware of.
For those who've been following Fortnite closely, the emergence of this countdown timer, and its listed time, won't be much of a surprise. In Fortnite's update 10.41 patch notes released earlier this week, Epic announced that Fortnite Season 10 would end at 2 p.m. EDT on October 13. So, this timer is merely a visual representation of that prior announcement.
As with most Fortnite live events, dataminers have spent the last several weeks poring over update files to locate any possible hints about what to expect once this newly displayed timer strikes zero. For those who aren't afraid of SPOILERS there's quite a lot worth knowing.
Prior to the event, all Fortnite players will be funneled into a special Battle Royale lobby called "The End." It's in this space that interested players will be able to watch the live event as it unfolds. Once the timer has finished, the Rocket will begin to launch and everyone in the match will be fully immobilized. During this time, audio from the Visitor's hidden recording tapes will play. Here's some of the dialogue that's been leaked so far.
" Activate the Beacon precisely the moment this timer reaches nothing. The Zero Point must be contained once more. If they are correct, it will be the end. I speculate that no one calculated the formation of the Island. That interdimensional matter collisions would resolve rather than push. Now that I witness it first hand, it's obvious that Pinching alone made it inevitable. The Unintelligible Theorem was a success! I...us...you arrived outside the Loop at the exact moment of expansion. This effectively paused the singularity, giving us time to create the devices needed to synchronize the Junction.
"What I didn't factor was that the only way to trigger the device was from within the Loop. Thus this hasty and primitive recording. And why now you... I find myself Looped. What the seven of us are attempting is very risky. I suspect they are not the only ones watching. But it must be done or we lose the Bridge forever. When I hear this again will it help me remember? Or once Looped will I be just as muted as the others? No matter. It seems the lengthy precautions worked."
Around the time this audio plays, lobbies will be sucked into the Zero Point at Loot Lake. It's unclear precisely what triggers this moment to occur, but the launch of the Rocket presumably has something to do with it. It's believed that on the other side of the Zero Point players will be introduced to a totally new Battle Royale map. Because all related files have been encrypted, those have not been leaked.
Fortnite's The End event is an obvious callback to the legendary Rocket launch that occurred towards the end of Season 4. As we presumably say goodbye to this version of the Island, it makes sense to recapture the momentum of the arena's most iconic happening.
Fortnite is available now on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC and mobile.
