Fortnite Battle Royale season four is coming to a close, but season five is right around the corner, according to Epic Games. The Fortnite developer announced last week that season five of the game will begin on July 12 at 4 a.m. ET — just one day after the end of season four.

While season five is upon us, we still don’t know much about what changes the new season might bring. Last weekend’s missile launch, and the rifts it opened up in the sky and on the map, are sure to play a huge role, but there’s no telling to what extent they’ll impact the gameplay. For now, the rifts on the map continue to get bigger and bigger with each passing day.
