When does Fortnite Season 9 begin?
Fortnite players are still waiting to hear if the next Season will be Chapter 9 or Chapter 3. Although there is strong evidence that it will be Chapter 3, some contradictory copy on official Epic items still refers to next Season as Chapter 2.
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 9 will drop December 6, 2021 according to the end of Season 8 Battle Pass. This is in line with Season 7’s end on Sunday and Season 8 beginning on Monday.
Season 9 will launch at the same time as Season 8.
- UK – 6AM (BST).
- Europe – 7AM (CET).
- East Coast USA – 1AM (EST).
- West Coast USA – 10PM (PST).
There is always the possibility that Epic might delay Season 9, but there is no reason for us to believe this.
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 9 Theme
Although there has not been any official word or leak about the theme for Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 9, it is likely that it will address the outcome of IO’s battle against The Sideways. Agent Jones and The Foundation could also be in the picture, as cutscenes have shown players glimpses of The Foundation since he was removed from The Spire in Season 7.
Fortnite Chapter 2: Season 9 Battle Pass
The Battle Pass is not being revealed at the moment, just as Chapter 2’s theme is unknown. The Battle Star system will be returning to players, and the Battle Pass cost will remain at 950 V-Bucks (US$7.99 / UK PlayStation5.88).
