Epic Games has officially revealed the full Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 Battle Pass, and the next season is set to bring a mix of original outfits, crossover cosmetics, and returning mechanics. The new Fortnite Runners season will begin on June 6, and the battle pass includes eight new skins along with launch-week rewards tied to the season rollout.
The reveal also confirms a John Wick collaboration and a crossover with Twitch streamer TheBurntPeanut. Epic Games shared the full lineup through its official social media account, giving players an early look at what will arrive when Chapter 7 Season 3 goes live.
Battle Pass lineup includes eight skins
The Fortnite Runners Battle Pass will feature eight skins in total, with several designs standing out for different reasons. Among them are John Wick – Pen & Ink, Vanguard Slone, Heatwave PJ, and remix-style versions of familiar Fortnite characters.
The confirmed skins are The Guardian, Heatwave PJ, Vanguard Slone, Dylan, Cluster, John Wick – Pen & Ink, The Voidblade, and Wolfe. Epic Games also showed TheBurntPeanut Fortnite collaboration in the reveal, although it is not yet clear whether the item will appear as a sidekick or a sprite.
What stands out in the new season
The John Wick cosmetic appears to be one of the season’s biggest additions, especially since Epic Games also included John Wick and Dog among the early bonus rewards. TheBurntPeanut crossover adds another notable creator-focused item to the pass, while classic Fortnite characters such as PJ and Slone return in updated forms.
Epic Games said sprites are coming back as a mechanic in Chapter 7 Season 3, which adds another layer of uncertainty around how some cosmetics will work. Recent battle passes have also included sidekick items, so the new streamer collaboration could fit into either format.
Launch-week rewards confirmed
Epic Games also revealed a separate set of Fortnite Runners Battle Pass rewards that will be available during launch week. These bonus cosmetics become available starting on June 6 and include a mix of skins, pickaxes, back blings, gliders, and kicks.
The launch-week rewards are Gold Huntress Dylan, Venomous Chainsaw, Gilded Cherubs Holster, Marbled Speedboat, John Wick and Dog, Dark Cubic Sneakers, John Wick Gunglider, and Blade of the Void. That list suggests Epic is using the season launch to push both new character cosmetics and themed gear tied to the pass.
Release timing and server downtime
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 is scheduled to launch on Saturday, June 6, 2026. The season arrives one day after the Fortnite Shattered live event on June 5, which will close out Chapter 7 Season 2 before the game enters maintenance.
Epic Games has not shared an exact release time for Chapter 7 Season 3. The update is expected to go live early in the morning, after the servers return from the half-day maintenance window, and players who buy the pass will then be able to begin unlocking the new cosmetics right away.
