AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Epic Games is closing out Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 with the Shattered live event on June 5. Players who log in early can secure exclusive rewards like the Chaos Cutlasses pickaxe and the Bark Voyager sidekick.
Fortnite is once again gearing up for a massive seasonal transition, and Epic Games is closing out Chapter 7 Season 2 with a cinematic live event titled Shattered. Scheduled for Friday, June 5 at 7 p.m. EDT, the event brings a definitive conclusion to the ongoing clash between the Ice King and The Foundation. As millions of players log in across console, PC, and mobile, these shared virtual spectacles continue to prove why battle royales remain the ultimate digital town square for modern gaming communities.
According to reporting by Johnny Yu over at Polygon, getting into the event will require a bit of early planning. Epic Games recommends jumping into the lobby roughly forty minutes before the start time to secure your spot and avoid the inevitable queue bottlenecks that come with massive server traffic spikes. You can access the Shattered playlist directly from the top row of the Discover tab once you load up the game.
Participating in the event also unlocks some solid gear for your locker ahead of the Season 3 launch on Saturday, June 6. Every player who shows up will receive the Chaos Cutlasses pickaxe. If you want to claim the additional Bark Voyager sidekick, you will need to queue up with at least one friend, leaning nicely into the social coordination that makes these moments fun. Head over to Polygon to read the full breakdown of regional start times and details.
