Fortnite Live Event: Dark Voyager Story Moment Set for March 14 at 3:30 pm ET as Chapter 7 Season 1 Nears Finale
The fortnite live event closing out Chapter 7 – Season 1 is scheduled to begin Saturday, March 14, at 3: 30 pm ET, with Epic Games set to wrap the season with an in-game storyline moment that teases Chapter 7 – Season 2.
Fortnite Live Event Timing and What’s Confirmed
The season-ending story moment is set for Saturday, March 14 at 3: 30 pm ET and will play out live in-game at the same time worldwide. The event is tied to the “Dark Voyager” storyline and is positioned as the final live moment of Chapter 7 – Season 1 before Season 2.
Players will have damage immunity during the event, allowing the story beat to unfold without interruptions from enemy attacks. The live moment is expected to be short and is designed to tease what comes next in Chapter 7 – Season 2.
How to Watch the Dark Voyager Story Moment In-Game
To watch the fortnite live event as it happens, players will need to be in a match before 3: 30 pm ET. The event will be available in Battle Royale, with guidance to queue a few minutes early to avoid missing the start. One set of instructions recommends queuing around 3: 25 pm ET or earlier, noting that matchmaking times may be longer in smaller regions.
For the Dark Voyager story moment specifically, players are directed to load into a standard Battle Royale match (Build or Zero Build) ahead of the start time and head to Lethal Labs, where the event is expected to unfold. Players are encouraged to arrive a few minutes early because the story moment is expected to begin right at 3: 30 pm ET.
What Happens After: Power Hour Details
After the live event ends, a Power Hour is scheduled to begin shortly after. During this period, players will receive Supercharged XP and start matches with a Wingsuit, Seven Cluster Cannon, and Self-Revive Device.
The post-event Power Hour also includes several match-wide changes: a Gold Rush anomaly at the start of every match, the storm forming the shape of a 7, and glider redeployment for everyone. The mode also adds more Legendary POIs, increasing the chances of rare chests and higher-quality loot as Chapter 7 – Season 1 winds down and Season 2 approaches.
