In addition to this official schedule, on November 21, the countdown that marks the start of the event also appeared within the game and that we can see in different points of Fortnite, such as the Battle Royale waiting room, the “Pass of Battle “, or on the SHIELD Helicarrier from which we start each game.

Know that this countdown will reach 0 on Tuesday, December 1 at 10:10 p.m. CET, so this would be the time the event would start, and not on the dot as Epic Games stated in the official announcements.
We also know, thanks to leaks by dataminers like FortniteGLAT, that this event will have a specific playlist, called “The Eater of Worlds”, referring to Galactus. His description is “Defend the Island to save all Reality”.

Galactus approached the island and its current state is hidden under the sea that surrounds it. Little by little it will emerge as the date and time of the event get closer:

Fortnite: Season 5 start date and time
Official Galactus art in Fortnite
As of November 21, 2020, the end date for Season 4 of Fortnite Chapter 2 – and therefore the start date for Season 5 – has changed. As we can see within the game itself, Season 4 will end on the same day that Season 5 will begin: Tuesday, November 1.
Season 4 of Fortnite Chapter 2 will end on December 1, according to the game itself
This information is subject to change at any time and, in fact, we believe that is what will happen. Recall that during Season 2 of Chapter 2 of Fortnite, once the The Device event ended, we spent a couple of days until the new season began, which is why we are inclined to think that in this case the same will happen and the Season 5 could start on Thursday, December 3, 2020 instead of starting immediately after finishing the Galactus event as official information suggests.
In any case, as always, at Meristation we will inform you with the utmost rigor and seriousness possible about any news in this regard.
