Fortnite's Chapter 6 Finale: Zero Hour Event Date & Time Revealed

The countdown is on as Epic Games prepares to close one of Fortnite's most ambitious chapters with the Zero Hour finale event-a spectacle set to deliver gaming's most monumental crossover experience since Avengers: Endgame. Slated to take place on November 29, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST (11:00 AM PST), this one-time live event marks a definitive end to the wild narrative arc of Chapter 6. All players will want to plan to log in early: event doors open at 1:20 PM EST, giving the community 40 minutes to queue before server congestion hits. For players in India, the event launches at 12:30 AM IST on November 30. The teaser trailer set expectations stratospheric. The cinematic reveals an unprecedented collision of entertainment titans: Godzilla and King Kong facing off, a colossal Homer Simpson, Star Wars X-wings screaming overhead, and the Power Rangers Megazord stomping into battle. Most intriguingly, Kill Bill's legendary Bride rides in on a motorcycle, confirming her arrival as a playable skin for Chapter 7. The narrative framework places Fortnite's heroes, Jonesy and Hope, at the lead of a unified front against the Dark Presence, a demonic entity hailing from the Spirit Realm that has haunted Chapter 6's storyline. This is the boldest storytelling gamble to date from Epic Games, marrying months of character development with unprecedented intellectual property partnerships. By compressing every major collaboration from Chapter 6 into this single cinematic climax, Epic signals a strategic shift toward spectacle-driven narratives. The gameplay remains classified, but if the history of past chapter events tells us anything, it's that combat sequences will be interactive, not passive. Primarily, server stability and public stress-test sessions will start on November 20-21 at 1:40 PM ET, with compensation rewards of 80,000 XP to participants. This preparation underscores the expected volume of players, possibly Fortnite's largest event audience under one roof.
