Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 7 is almost here, and a lot of people are wondering when they can watch the live event that kicks off the new season. Fortnite typically holds an extravagant live event every time a season ends, but Epic's approach to events has changed over the past few seasons. Season 6 began with a single-player event called Zero Crisis Finale, and this season's story content was sprinkled throughout the season instead of all happening during a single event. Season 7 will follow a similar pattern, but the timeline of events might be a little different this time around. Here's everything you need to know about the Fortnite Season 7 live event.
When is the Fortnite Season 7 Live Event?
Epic Games has yet to announce a live event for Fortnite Season 7. According to known leaker HYPEX, there won't be a live event to end the current season, but there might be an intro event like March's Zero Crisis Finale. Epic has announced that the Season 7 trailer will premiere on YouTube at 2 a.m. ET on June 8, when the season is expected to begin. It's the same way Season 6 started, so it's possible there will be a single-player event to play once the servers are back online after some downtime.
