Fortnite Season 7 and 8 leaks and countdown

The countdown timer for the Season 7 live event will be a themed one. According to HYPEX, the timer will sometimes glitch into alien glyphs instead of numbers.

The event countdown has not begun yet, but this is what it will look like for players. Another thing leaked is the Ariana Grande concert. While there's been no announcement for a date, leaks suggested that it would be in Season 7. So there is a finite amount of time left for the concert.

It is also believed that she will get skins, backblings and other cosmetics to accompany and market her in-game concert. Players can expect this concert and cosmetics to mirror what Fortnite did with Travis Scott and his in-game concert.

As for Season 8, it is expected to start in the middle of September. The end date for Season 7 is probably going to be September 12th or 13th, which sheds further light on when Season 8 might begin. With one of the biggest rumors being leaked, the possibility has gotten even stronger.

According to the leaks, Naruto will be part of the Season 8 battlepass. The iconic anime character has long been a requested and anticipated addition to Fortnite, and it appears the game is gearing up for a collaboration in Season 8.

Rideable creatures and the return of Mechs are also leaked for the future, though they may be a part of a later season rather than the next. Still, with all these revelations, the future of Fortnite looks truly incredible.

That includes the future of Season 8, which is just on the horizon.
