Fortnite's February Love & Legends event is now underway, with some Valentine's Day themed rewards to be had. Log in daily to get your hands on everything from battle pass levels to an exclusive loading screen.

Fortnite's latest update is finally here, continuing with Fortnite Pacific Break, which switches up the map once again. As a result, we now know that Fortnite's next season release date is March 4, 2026 - the same date as the current season's end date. Until then, however, there are new weapons to try out as part of Fortnite Pacific Break, a Kill Bill-themed Battle Pass, as well as updates to everything from reviving and rebooting to how players first drop into the map at the start of a match.
