The upcoming Fortnite 30.40 update will mark the end of Chapter 5 Season 3 and all focus will shift to the new season.
It is highly likely that Chapter 5 Season 4 will have a Marvel theme, with Doctor Doom as the main character, following the successful collaboration between Deadpool and Wolverine. However, Epic Games has yet to release their final update, which is expected to include a significant amount of LEGO content and potentially a crossover with Five Nights at Freddy’s, as rumored.
The initial patch notes for the Fortnite 30.40 update are presented below.
Fortnite 30.40 Update: Release Date and Downtime
According to an X post by the developers, Fortnite v30.40 is scheduled for release on Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
According to previous updates, it is expected that downtime will commence at approximately 1 AM PT / 4 AM ET / 9 AM BST and may persist for a few hours. Throughout this time, the game will be inaccessible and matchmaking will be unavailable.
Battle Bus, sleep, and more coming to LEGO Mode in v30.40
Despite the fact that the specific alterations to the primary BR modes have not been disclosed, Epic has confirmed that there will be a significant amount of LEGO-related content included in the upcoming 30.40 update.
The primary update includes the highly anticipated Battle Bus, which will serve as a fast travel system that players have long been requesting. This feature will allow for swift navigation between bases on their islands, eliminating the need for manual running.

The LEGO mode will now offer the ability to sleep until morning, a feature commonly found in survival games but absent since its launch. This option will enable players to skip the more difficult nighttime period, where scavenging and building is complicated by the higher number of enemies.
The developers have also made a promise of introducing “new Toys,” which will likely provide additional options for building structures. However, there has been no confirmation on what these new toys will entail.
Fortnite and Five Nights at Freddy’s could be collaborating soon
Ever since the announcement of the Fortnite 30.40 update on August 6, there have been rumors circulating about a possible crossover with Five Nights at Freddy’s in the upcoming patch. While there has been no official confirmation, the FNAF developers have hinted at a secret collaboration planned for the same date.
As part of the game’s 10th anniversary festivities, fans have long been anticipating a collaboration between the two. With this in mind, many believe that now would be the ideal moment to make it happen.
The truth of this statement is yet to be revealed, and if it does come to fruition, it could potentially introduce new skins, cosmetics, and items. Such an outcome would be the perfect way to conclude Chapter 5 Season 3.
