Online game seasons have clear and predetermined endings for good reason: Companies want players to know exactly how much time they have to obtain their rewards. Not being able to get a cosmetic or item they desired is the fastest way to exhaust your audience, making them feel cheated. This is something that Epic has managed to avoid so far.
According to their official Twitter account, Fortnite will end Chapter 5 Season 3 earlier than expected. Closing August 15th at 11 PM, with scheduled maintenance shortly after, this chapter will close its doors three hours earlier than expected. This may disrupt the plans of many players.
Three hours may seem like a short amount of time, but with only one week’s notice, those three hours to reach level 200 of the battle pass for the season can make the difference between achieving it or not. That’s why, from Epic, they have decided to create a way to compensate players. Starting on August 13th, an Experience Supercharger will be available for all players, allowing us to level up faster. However, it is limited to only three levels.
While you may be close to level 200 if you have been playing since the beginning of the season, it is possible that may not necessarily be to achieve your goals. If you need an extra boost, remember that the Wasteland Wraith leveling bundle will help you level up faster. It costs 1,200 V-Bucks, which is not cheap, but if it helps you get an exclusive reward, it’s not a bad deal.
Remember. Chapter 5 continues until August 15, three hours earlier than expected. So if you want to see the end of this chapter, or if you want to achieve your goals, adjust your plans, or you might miss out on something you really desired.
