The Getaway, a thrilling Limited Time Mode in *Fortnite*, made its debut during Chapter 1 Season 5 and returned in Chapter 6 Season 2. Here's your guide on how to dive into The Getaway in *Fortnite*, along with details on its duration.
Playing The Getaway in Fortnite
Starting The Getaway in *Fortnite* is straightforward. Launch *Fortnite* on your preferred platform, head to the Lobby, and navigate to the Discover section. Scroll through the available modes until you spot The Getaway, then hit the Play button to join the queue. If it doesn't appear, utilize 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 an exhilarating heist-style game mode where your mission is to secure a jewel on the map and make a daring escape in a Getaway Van. It's a PvP mode, pitting you against other teams who are also vying for the jewels. Victory goes to the first three teams that successfully grab a jewel and escape. Alternatively, you can also win by eliminating other teams you encounter. A notable feature this time is the availability of The Getaway in Zero Build mode, perfect for players who prefer not to engage with *Fortnite*'s building mechanics. You can enjoy this mode in Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked formats.
The Getaway Start and End Dates
The Getaway is currently live in *Fortnite*, but it will conclude on April 1st 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.
