Fortnite’s relationship with Superman did not exactly end well, as now the map is flooded with bugs for its new Chapter 6, season 4 theme, Shock and Awesome.
We know the season features the likes of new Halo Spartans, six different Power Rangers and their giant Megazord, along with fighting the new invasion of insects, which is a first for the game. We’ve had zombies and mercenaries but yeah, this is new.
What time does Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 begin in your specific time zone?
Fortnite’s Shock and Awesome season releases tomorrow on Thursday, August 7. But if you want more specifics, the exact times for Chapter 6 season 4’s release. Servers go down somewhere between 1:30 and 2 AM EDT when the battle pass expires. Then, we know that downtime usually lasts between 2-6 hours or so. That means:
- 3 AM – 8 AM PDT – North America, West Coast
- 6 AM – 11 AM EDT – North America, East Coast
- 7 AM – 12 AM BRT – Brazil
- 11 AM – 4 PM BST – United Kingdom
- 1 PM – 5 PM CEST – Western Europe
- 7 PM – 12 PM – Japan
- 8 PM – 1 AM – Australia
Fortnite has already been showing off various aspects of the season in new art and trailers. It appears that the new Spartans are reward for reaching level 100, and it’s possible that the Green Ranger is up there as well. We know that the core five Power Rangers are going to be sold in the store after. Megazord should not arrive on the map right away.
This season in particular feels like a bit of a hodge-podge thrown together, everything from the name (Shock and Awesome?) to the collabs with Halo and Power Rangers. Some players are hoping that we get a Solo Leveling crossover given that invading bugs are really the plot point of the anime so far, as it makes perfect sense. It also occurs to me that something like a Helldivers crossover would be good, though we haven’t heard a whiff of anything like that.

We’ll see how it all shakes out when the season launches early tomorrow, or later in the day, depending on where you’re reading this. I expect it to be controversial, and perhaps not one of the best seasons, but I suppose I’m judging too quickly and just based on some limited previews so far.
