Countdown to Fortnite Chapter 6 Zero Hour Live Event
Want to know exactly how much time is left before the big event? Here is a countdown to help you track down to the second when the Fortnite Chapter 6 Zero Hour live event begins:
What to Expect
Epic Games is clearly going all-in for this chapter finale. You’ll see some of the biggest characters and crossovers Fortnite has ever had, all fighting the same enemy. Check out the teaser trailer below and what to expect from the event:
- Godzilla and King Kong are coming back for this event, and they look ready for a huge fight. The teaser even shows a giant Homer Simpson joining them.
- There will be the Bride from Kill Bill. She’s shown riding a motorcycle and taking down enemies with her sword. This confirms she’ll be in the Chapter 7 Battle Pass.
- All season long, a mysterious villain called the Dark Presence has been hiding in the story. This demon from the Spirit Realm is the real threat, and Zero Hour will finally bring the final fight.
- Jonesy and Hope are back to lead the push. These two have been important in Fortnite’s story for years, so their return shows that the event is focusing on the main storyline again. The Seven are also expected to show up, tying things back to earlier chapters.
- The trailer also shows Star Wars X-wings and what looks like a Megazord.
Once the Zero Hour event wraps up, Fortnite usually goes offline for several hours. This downtime lets Epic Games prepare the game for the new chapter. When the servers come back online, you’ll be jumping straight into Chapter 7 Season 1 with a brand new map, a fresh Battle Pass, and new gameplay features. Remember the date and time so you don’t miss out on this experience!
