Excitement is building as the next big collaboration coming to Fortnite is Pirates of the Caribbean. This information has been circulating for some time now due to substantial leaks earlier in the year. However, the exact release date of Pirates of the Caribbean in Fortnite still remains a mystery. As the game is currently in the midst of its summer event, players can expect a significant update to accompany this exciting new collaboration.
The new collaboration has already made its mark in the game in various ways. In a recent Fortnite patch, Epic accidentally activated it prematurely, but most players were not able to access it. So when can the wider Fortnite audience anticipate experiencing Pirates of the Caribbean? Well, the new collaboration has a tentative release date already set. Here is what we know about its arrival.

When is Pirates of the Caribbean Coming to Fortnite?
Currently, Fortnite is immersed in the 2024 Summer Event, with Epic scheduled to end its break around July 17th. However, the Pirates update is slated to arrive a few days later.
The anticipated start date for the Pirates of the Caribbean theme in Fortnite is July 19, 2024. This is when the Event pass will be launched, allowing players to begin unlocking Jack Sparrow within the game. The other skins are likely to follow a day or so after.
This is the expected timeframe for Pirates of the Caribbean to make its debut in Fortnite. Of course, there is a possibility that the release date may be adjusted by a day or two if unforeseen issues arise. Epic often needs time to address any bugs that may surface upon their return from break. Nevertheless, since Epic has provided a full release date for the collaboration, players can anticipate its arrival as announced.
The upcoming collaboration will showcase an event pass as the main highlight. Additionally, players can look forward to in-game items such as a pirate ship spawn, exclusive Fortnite item shop skins, and more. It promises to be an entertaining event to conclude the season.
