Fortnite Fall Fest Event: Start date and time, free rewards, challenges and more

It's update day in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3. Tuesdays often bring new content, and this one is no different. The v21.50 update, which will be one of the last updates of Chapter 3 Season 3, has been released. Late Game Arena, the Pump Shotgun, many skins, and more were added to the game as a result.

Epic Games also took the opportunity to add the Fortnite Fall Fest Event, with the season right around the corner. It will more than likely be the final event of Chapter 3 Season 3, as the next season is coming in mid-September.

The event will feature challenges, rewards, and Creative maps. It will be one of the final opportunities to earn XP for this battle pass and unlock skins like Darth Vader, Malik, and more.

Here's the full guide to the challenges, the free rewards, and more.

Fortnite Fall Fest Event: When does it start and how do I participate?

The Fall Fest Event was added to Fortnite as a result of the v21.50 update. It has been added today, August 30. At about 8 am EST, the challenges are expected to go live, so once players load into the game, they should be able to participate.

While this isn't as big of a change as the No Sweat Summer event was, it's still a pretty sizeable change for players. It will be active until September 6, so time is limited.
