Epic Games just released an update to Fortnite The Simpsons, adding in donut storms. In matches, there will now be a pink circle on the map, where the storms will trigger. Giant donuts fall from the skies, and will crush any players they hit. Additionally, the Springfielder Peely skin is now available to unlock. Complete quests to earn the skin, and extra cosmetic items.
Fortnite Chapter 6 is finally here, continuing with Fortnite The Simpsons which switches up the map once again. There's new weapons to try out, a Springfield-themed Battle Pass, as well as updates centered around the long-running TV show.
Here's everything you need to know about the process of Fortnite The Simpsons ending, when the next season starts, and what to expect from Fortnite in the future. Also, the latest on what's been revealed about future updates, including possible The Simpsons events and tie-ins.
When does the current season of Fortnite end?
Fortnite The Simpsons will end on November 29 at the times below:
- East Coast (US):Â 2:30PM ET
- West Coast (US): 11:30AM PT
- United Kingdom:Â 6:30PM GMT
- Central Europe:Â 7:30PM CET

When is the next season of Fortnite?
The next season of Fortnite will launch following downtime on November 29, 2025. Hopefully, downtime is only 5 hours (based on the average times of Chapter 6 so far), but it's worth noting that things have been known to slip slightly in the past. Assuming a downtime of 5 hours, the new season will launch at the times below:
- East Coast (US):Â 7:30PM ET
- West Coast (US): 4:30PM PT
- United Kingdom:Â 11:30PM GMT
- Central Europe:Â 12:30AM CET (November 30)

- Japan (Tokyo):Â 8:30AM JST (November 30)
What to expect from the next Fortnite season
The next season of Fortnite is yet to be announced. Given that it's the final major update of the year, I'd expect it to be the launch of Fortnite Chapter 7. If this holds true, we'll see a completely new map, a new Battle Pass, an overhaul of core combat features and more. We'll have to wait and see what Epic Games has planned.
Fortnite latest map changes
Fortnite has a completely new map that launched alongside The Simpsons season. It's called Springfield Island, and is a bit smaller than the last map. 80 players can drop into a Battle Royale match, so matches finish faster than in the last season. You can see the new map in the image embedded above, with major POIs like Burn's Manor, Evergreen Terrace and more.
