When is the next Fortnite update?

The next Fortnite update for v36.10 is scheduled to go live on June 18, 2025. Chapter 6 Season 3 (Super) is all about superheroes and villains, which Epic Games has done a brilliant job of portraying. There are some new NPCs on the island to talk to, and of course, the Battle Pass to complete to claim rewards as you level up.

But if you're reading this article, you've come for information regarding the next update, and what new content we could expect to see. Epic Games, as usual, has not provided all the details, but we do know some things thanks to leakers. That said, here is everything to know about the upcoming update and the content we could expect to see added.

The date has been confirmed as June 18, 2025. It was supposed to occur on June 17, 2025, but it would seem Epic Games made a change in the plan. As for the time, we can expect downtime to start between 2:00 AM and 4:00 AM Eastern Time, as is the norm. Since this will be the first update for Chapter 6 Season 3, the downtime could be longer than usual. Official details will be revealed soon.

New content

A lot of content will be injected during the Fortnite update v36.10, but not all of it will go live immediately. Since this will be the last update before Epic Games takes off for their Summer break, content will be spread out over a month. Here's a list of things you can expect to see added to the game's files:

Fortnite Fesvital Season 9 (Rumors suggest Bruno Mars could take over the Main Stage).
Squad Game collaboration (Leaks suggest we'll be getting a Squid Game map for Reload mode).
Superman Mythic
Son Heung-Min (Outfit)
Teasers for the Summer Event
LEGO Fortnite Expeditions and Blitz Royale
Battle Pass Super Styles
Mini-Event

There are bound to be leaks as well, showcased during downtime. They could provide insights into when exactly new content will go live, as well as content that's not accounted for in the aforementioned list.

That's about everything you need to know about the next Fortnite update. We could get some hints from Epic Games later today, but I wouldn't be too optimistic, since they've revealed a lot of things in the past week.
