Overview
- The Shattered cinematic is scheduled to begin Friday at 7 p.m. ET with game lobbies opening 40 minutes earlier so players can queue to participate.
- Epic has confirmed attendance rewards: the Chaos Cutlasses pickaxe for anyone who joins the event and the Bark Voyager sidekick for players who attend with at least one friend.
- Servers will enter downtime immediately after the event for maintenance that will close Chapter 7 Season 2 and prepare the update for Season 3.
- Chapter 7 Season 3, titled Runners, is set for June 6 but Epic has not given an exact launch time and third‑party estimates of when play will resume remain unverified.
- Leaked and teased Season 3 details suggest a new Battle Pass with remixed skins, returning Sprites, new weapons and map changes, which will appear once the update and downtime complete and rewards populate players' Lockers.
