The Getaway, a thrilling Limited Time Mode in *Fortnite*, first debuted in Chapter 1 Season 5 and has made a comeback in Chapter 6 Season 2. Here’s a detailed guide on how to dive into The Getaway, including its duration.
Playing The Getaway in Fortnite
Jumping into The Getaway in *Fortnite* is straightforward. Launch the game on your preferred platform, head to the Lobby, and click on Discover. Scroll until you spot The Getaway and hit the Play button to join the queue. If you're having trouble finding it, use the search bar located in the top left corner of the Lobby, type in "The Getaway," and it should appear instantly.
What Is The Getaway?
The Getaway is an engaging heist-themed game mode where your objective is to snatch a jewel from the map and make a swift escape using a Getaway Van. It's a PvP mode, pitting you against other teams who are also on the hunt for the jewels. Victory goes to the first three teams that successfully secure a jewel and escape, but you can also win by eliminating rival teams. A highlight of this iteration of The Getaway is its availability in Zero Build mode, perfect for players who prefer not to engage with *Fortnite*'s building mechanics. You can play in various formats including Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked.
The Getaway Start and End Dates
The Getaway is currently accessible in *Fortnite* and will remain so until April 1, at 12 a.m. Eastern Time. I highly recommend taking advantage of this window to play, as you can earn XP that will contribute to your Battle Pass progression.
