When is the Doomsday event happening on Fortnite? Players working their way through the current batch of content in Fortnite have been enjoying the secret agent theme that’s going on right now. One of the central features is a Doomsday device, and many people are predicting a terrible disaster is on the way.
Fortnite Chapter 2 – Season 2 was supposed to end way back on April 30, 2020. Epic Games made the decision to extend the season for more than a month, launching the next season of content at the start of June 2020.

The theme of Chapter 2 – Season 2 is “Top Secret,”, a spy-themed update. Covert operatives from the “Ghost” and “Shadow” factions are battling it out on the island, and one of them appears to be preparing some kind of Doomsday device. Will it destroy the island? More importantly, when will it destroy the island? That is a question that many are wondering — and we might just have the answer.
