The Getaway is an exciting Limited Time Mode that was first introduced in *Fortnite* during Chapter 1 Season 5 and made a comeback in Chapter 6 Season 2. Here’s everything you need to know about playing The Getaway in *Fortnite*, including its duration.
Playing The Getaway in Fortnite
Starting The Getaway in *Fortnite* is straightforward. Simply launch *Fortnite* on your preferred platform, navigate to the Lobby, and select Discover. Look for The Getaway and hit the Play button to queue up for the mode. If you're having trouble finding it, use the search bar in the top left corner of the Lobby, type in "The Getaway," and it should appear instantly.
What Is The Getaway?
The Getaway is a thrilling heist-style game mode where players must retrieve a jewel from the map and escape using a Getaway Van. This PvP mode pits you against multiple teams all vying for the same jewels. The first three teams to secure a jewel and escape in a van are declared winners, though you can also triumph by eliminating other teams. A unique aspect of The Getaway this time is its availability in Zero Build mode, catering to players who prefer not to use *Fortnite*'s building mechanics. You can enjoy The Getaway in Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked formats.
The Getaway Start and End Dates
The Getaway is currently available in *Fortnite*, and you can play it until April 1, at 12 a.m. Eastern Time. I highly recommend taking advantage of this window to play, as you'll also earn XP that contributes to your battle pass progression.
