Fortnite: Chapter 3 is well underway with an absolute tonne of content to play and no doubt more on the way. Epic really are the best in the business when it comes to posting updates, with Fortnite getting its own update day once every two weeks on average.

In Chapter 3, Fortnite’s update day should be every other Tuesday at 9 AM GMT. This is based on previous seasons, though is always subject to change. Chapter 3, for instance, launched on a Sunday at 3PM GMT, which is a very unusual time to say the least.

The amount of updates per season really varies, but most seasons have four updates at the very least. As they are fortnightly, Epic typically releases a “content update” in the other week, which means that they release items/weapons that were added to the game in the update but not yet made available.

Players will have to download a file each time a new update is pushed out by Epic, which ranges from anywhere from a few hundred MB to 10 GB in size. Players won’t be able to play the game without downloading the update and cannot revert back to a previous version.

Fortnite is free-to-play on PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Android.
