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.

ALSO: Valorant release date surprisingly announced for 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.

As pointed out in this Reddit submission, Fortnite events typically take place five days before the conclusion of a season. So, if you’re wondering, “When is the Doomsday event happening on Fortnite?,” we can use that information to figure things out — along with some nice datamining.

Fortnite leaker FireMonkey tweeted that something is going to be happening with the Doomsday device on May 30, 2020, at 2:00 PM Eastern time. Combine that with the Reddit discussion, and we can make a reasonable prediction for when this event is popping off.

Although we have a good idea of when this event is likely to happen, we can’t be entirely sure what will happen. We could see the entire island face yet another catastrophe or we could be getting some other kind of surprise. Either way, we’ll be finding out very soon!
