Epic Games made official the upcoming release of Fortnite v11.50. The patch will be implemented at 1:00 am (PT), after a maintenance period that may last a few hours. The information comes from the Twitter account dedicated to the state of the game servers, Fortnite Status.
This will be the very last content patch of Chapter 2 Season 1. The next season is scheduled to start on February 20.
This update crystallizes a lot of expectations in the community. In addition to the progressive implementation of the new Unreal Engine Chaos physics system, players are hoping for a major event to close what was the longest season in the game's history (128 days).
A Fortnite x Birds of Prey collaboration is certainly in the pipeline, but it's still unclear whether it will be a full event or just a DC cosmetics arrival.
