The new season of Fortnite kicked off this week. There’s plenty of content to go through, but what about what’s coming next? Fortnite doesn’t sit still. Even in the early days of the season, we’ve already had an emergency fix patch. However, there’s plenty of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 updates scheduled. Dataminers have even looked into the files and dug out the dates when we’ll see the big updates of the season.
The season might have only just started, but players are already looking ahead to what’s coming next to the game. Fortnite has constant updates. We’re expecting four major patches with new content before this Fortnite season ends. These are the provisional dates that data leakers have found so far:

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Update Dates
Data miners like to go through the Fortnite files to track down everything that’s coming to the game. In Fortnite leaks we get items, new POIs, features, everything. The Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Updates release dates have also been found on the servers by data leakers. This is when we’re expecting each of them:
September 4 – V31.10
September 17 – v31.20
October 1 – V.31.30
October 15 – V31.40
OG – November 2
What’s actually coming in these updates though? The first two are a bit of a mystery. We might be getting some kind of counter to the new items, although the Fortnite Marvel nerfs have hit those first. These could be updates with new items too, we’ll have to see what comes. It probably won’t be changes to POIs though, Epic hasn’t been doing too many of these mid-season lately.
The other updates are a bit clearer. The October update should bring in Fortnitemares, which is the big event we’re expecting for this season. The later updates should be setting the stage for the end of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 and the return of Fortnite OG. We’re in for a packed few months in Fortnite.
