Fortnite: countdown to the season 2 finale event

A countdown appears for the in-game Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 finale event. The device of the Last Judgment is prepared.

On May 23, 2020, a countdown appeared on several of the Fortnite menu tabs, and in and around The Agency. This timer marks how long until the end of the Fortnite Chapter 2 Battle Pass Season 2 finale. The Doomsday device will be activated very soon.

Fortnite Chapter 2: The countdown begins for the Season 2 finale event

Around 13:00 on May 23, 2020 (Peninsular Spanish time), a countdown appeared both in the "Play" tab of the Fortnite Battle Royale menu, and inside Agent Midas's room, inside the tab "Battle Pass". Below is a screenshot taken by ourselves from the waiting room:

A few days ago it was leaked that this same countdown will also appear on top of The Agency, although at the time we wrote this news, there is still no trace of it in the game:

The date and time of the Fortnite Chapter 2 Battle Pass Season 2 finale event is therefore Saturday, May 30 at 8:05 p.m. (Peninsular Spain time). We leave you, as always, the specific schedule for several Spanish-speaking countries:

  • Spain (peninsula and Balearic Islands): 8:05 p.m. on Saturday, May 30

  • Spain (Canary Islands): 7:05 p.m. on Saturday, May 30

  • Argentina, Chile and Uruguay: 5:05 p.m. on Saturday, May 30

  • United States and Venezuela: 4:05 p.m. on Saturday, May 30

  • Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico: 2:05 p.m. on Saturday, May 30

Surely Epic Games enable some special game mode in which to see the event live and direct within Fortnite. It will be this game mode that we will have to enter (we recommend doing it at least 15-20 minutes before the start date of the event), and we will be able to experience in our own meats the surprise that Epic has in store for us.

We still don't know exactly what will happen to the Last Judgment device, though leaked Season 3 teasers hint that there will be a flood on the map:
