Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event: Start date and time

Based on official information, the Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event will start on February 9, 2024 at 9 AM Eastern Time. Although Epic Games is yet to post about it on social media, there is an in-game countdown timer active. As such, when it ends, the event will officially begin. As for when the event will end, it is unclear at the moment, but it should run until the end of Chapter 5 Season 1.

This is taking into account there will be a lot for players to see and do during the Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event. As such, Epic Games will want to keep it active for as long as possible without hampering other end-of-season aspects of the game.

Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event: Everything we know so far

Based on what is known thus far, the Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event should go live on Friday at 9 AM Eastern Time. It may also be possible that this event will coincide with earthquakes and termors that are speculated to occur on the island once the Fortnite update v28.20 is in play. However, for the time being there is nothing to confirm this.

It also may be possible that a Mini Battle Pass of sorts could be added, but leakers/data-miners are yet to confirm this. Nevertheless, taking into account end-of-season events that have been featured in Chapter 4, there is a chance of this pattern being repeated.

Fortnite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle event: Quests/Challenges and rewards

Based on official information that is available in-game, there are four separate Quests/Challenges for players to complete; they are:

• Talk to April
• Hide in Sewer entrances
• Visit the Underground HQ
• Find empty Pizza Boxes

Each quest/challenge will yield 10,000 XP upon completion. Completing all will yield 40,000 XP. Most tasks are easy and should not take long to complete. Consider playing with a friend to finish them within the duration of a single match.

As for rewards, there is nothing to speak of at the moment, but knowing Epic Games, players will likely not be left empty-handed. There will also be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed weapons and Reality Augments that will be added for the occasion.

The Shredder Outfit/Skin will likely also be added to the Fortnite Item Shop once the downtime ends for update v28.20. If there is a Mini Battle Pass, players may be able to obtain the Outfit at a discounted price before it gets added to the Fortnite Item Shop.
