After the cartoonish chaos of The Simpsons season in Fortnite, a new chapter is on its way. Dubbed Zero Hour, this latest update seems more exciting and bigger than previous chapter releases, so what do players have to look forward to, and when exactly is the final event this season?
Fortnite Zero Hour Chapter Finale Countdown
The Fortnite chapter finale will begin on November 29, 2025, at 2 PM ET. Here is what that looks like in your timezone:
- Pacific Time (PT): 11 AM
- Eastern Time (ET): 2 PM
- U.K Time (GMT): 7 PM
- Central European Time: 8 PM
If you visit the Fortnite island right now, you will see a giant countdown clock in the middle of Springfield Town Square, hovering above Jebediah Springfield’s statue. This live countdown clock tells you precisely when the finale will happen, so you can be ready for the main event.
To make sure you are part of the finale event, it is important to get into the lobby about 20 minutes before it starts. This should guarantee you a spot, barring any issues with Fortnite servers and lobby queue times.
The teaser trailer shows some of the monsters from previous season battles, including Godzilla, King Kong, and the Dark Presence, along with a giant Homer Simpson throwing an enormous donut. Players will have to wait to find out whether these beasts will be part of the actual finale or merely part of a flashback.
So many creatures and characters can be spotted in the teaser trailer and the key art from Star Wars to TMNT, and Hatsune Miku. The virtual pop star was also featured in the Fortnite Store’s Zero Hour tab, along with the KPop Demon Hunters, Jonesy, and Hope, suggesting they actually play a significant role in the finale.
Check out the trailer below to find out what characters and crossovers you can spot from Chapter 6:
Part of the trailer also shows Uma Thurman’s The Bride from Kill Bill arriving on her motorbike in an attempt to save Jones and Hope, but how big a part is she in this final event?
As the official Fortnite team has said on social media: A reckoning is coming. Will you be ready to answer the call?
