The Getaway, a thrilling Limited Time Mode in *Fortnite*, made its debut during Chapter 1 Season 5 and has returned in Chapter 6 Season 2. Here's everything you need to know about how to dive into this exciting game mode and 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. Look for The Getaway and hit the Play button to start queuing. If you can't find it, use the search bar in the top left corner of the Lobby, type "The Getaway," and it should appear instantly.
What Is The Getaway?
The Getaway is a heist-inspired game mode where players must secure a jewel from the map and make a daring escape in a Getaway Van. This PvP mode pits you against other teams all vying for the same prize. Victory goes to the first three teams that successfully escape with a jewel, but you can also win by eliminating rival teams. A highlight this time around is that The Getaway is also available in Zero Build mode, perfect for those who prefer to skip the building aspect of *Fortnite*. You can enjoy this mode in Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked settings.
The Getaway Start and End Dates
The Getaway is currently live in *Fortnite*, but you'll need to act fast as it will conclude on April 1 at 12 a.m. Eastern Time. Make sure to play during this window to not only experience the thrill but also to earn XP that contributes to your battle pass progression.
