Live events at the end of a Fortnite season are always extremely exciting! But what will happen at the end of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1? We have all the details for you.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 ends on March 8, which is why we have to bid farewell to the current season with a mixture of sadness and excitement. However, a new season awaits us with a new theme apparently linked to Greek mythology and exciting new POIs!
But as always, players are wondering: will there be a live event at the end of the season? And we are here to answer that question.
Fortnite Live Event: Destroy the Chains to Open Pandora’s Box
Indeed, there will be a live eventbut unlike other live events, it will not take place at the end of the season, but it is being initiated right now!
Fortnite leaker iFireMonkey found files depicting a huge glowing hand emerging from the ground, connected by chains to “Pandora’s Box.” According to him, the community is supposed to work together to break the chains so that the box flies to Earth and opens.
However, as opening Pandora’s Box means disaster in Greek mythology, it won’t mean anything good for the islanders…

Once the box lands on Fortnite Island, it opens, shooting a menacing beam of fire into the sky, harboring evil souls.

Pandora’s box
According to Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman created in the world. She was shaped from clay by Zeus as punishment for humanity.
The young Titan Prometheus had created humans on Earth from clay in the image of the gods and had also managed to steal fire from the gods. This greatly angered Zeus, causing him to decide to punish Prometheus and the humans.
So one day, Zeus gave Pandora a mysterious box. Pandora was instructed to pass this box on to all humans, but she was forbidden from opening it herself.
However, soon after, Pandora couldn’t resist and opened the box herself. Inside the box was all the evil one could imagine! Disease, death and misery have spread throughout humanity. Zeus had taken his revenge.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Live Event: Start Date and Time
According to iFireMonkey, there are exactly 45 earthquakes every hour. The hand of Titan is supposed to emerge during earthquake number 46, which is scheduled to take place Thursday at 11 a.m. ET.
An hour before the hand emerges from the ground, visual effects will play while you are on the battle bus to prepare you almost an hour before the hand emerges for the event.
However, what will happen after opening Pandora’s sinister box is still unknown. But we will definitely keep you posted.
