Well, boys and girls, it looks like tomorrow’s the day. Tomorrow’s when we finally cross over to Season 4 of Fortnite and we can put all the rumors and crazy stories behind us. We’ll see the beginning of a new era for the game, and we’ll finally know whether or not Tilted Towers is going bye-bye, or what to expect. Today, Epic Games tweeted about the upcoming season twice, once to tell players to “brace for impact” and the other to warn them that “impact is imminent!” Looks like Fortnite will be going down tomorrow for a brief period of time to get things ready for a very important update.
Brace for impact!

The latest teaser image posted this morning shows us a new look at four characters, though we know about just as much as we did before when it comes to the newbies — are these characters we already know, or some new superhero squad to celebrate? Looks like we don’t have to wait much longer to look at the game and find out, right?
Impact is imminent! Downtime for the Season 4 update is scheduled for tomorrow, May 1 at 4:00am Eastern Time (08:00 GMT). ☄️?

If you plan on staying up all night, you can be the first to see what goes down at 4:00 AM ET, but be prepared for the maintenance to possibly last longer than usual, especially if anything’s about to be destroyed by the meteor. If you time it just right, and you’re playing Fortnite before the maintenance, perhaps you can catch something weird happening as it happens — maybe you’ll be around to see the carnage as it happens.
For the rest of us going to bed at a decent hour, Godspeed, Fortnite fans, and we’ll be coming at you tomorrow with the whole new world that awaits us. Let us know your predictions before the apocalypse happens!
