Fortnite began its first season in 2017, and there have been many more since, including the latest season, Chapter Six, season one.
Epic Games has successfully built on and improved Fortnite throughout its 30 seasons, introducing new weapons, characters, cosmetics, consumables, exclusive events, and entirely new games. This is why the start of a new Fortnite season is always a treat for battle royale fans.

What were the best chapters/seasons?
For many Fortnite players, Chapter Two, Season Two, Chapter Four, OG, and Chapter Two, Season Four are all remembered by the community for the world, themes, and characters they introduced.
I remember the Marvel season the most during Chapter Two, but something about the first Chapter was magical. The community was at its peak; there was a lot of experimentation, and every season added something neat, like Season Six adding pets—and who remembers when events on the map happened for the first time? That was all magical and memorable. It doesn’t feel like Fortnite ever got back to that feeling until season four’s OG chapter, which brought a lot of folks back to the game for the first time.
