How to Play The Getaway in Fortnite (Limited Time Mode)

If you're a *Fortnite* fan, you might be thrilled to know that The Getaway, a thrilling Limited Time Mode, has made a comeback in Chapter 6 Season 2 after its initial debut in Chapter 1 Season 5. Here’s your complete guide on how to dive into The Getaway in *Fortnite*, along with details on how long you can enjoy it.

Playing The Getaway in Fortnite

Jumping into The Getaway in *Fortnite* is straightforward. Start by launching *Fortnite* on your preferred platform, head to the Lobby, and click on Discover. Scroll through the available modes until you spot The Getaway, then hit the Play button to queue up. 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 an action-packed heist-style game mode where your mission is to snatch a jewel from the map and make a swift escape in a Getaway Van. It's a PvP mode, pitting you against multiple teams all vying for the same prize. Victory goes to the first three teams that successfully grab a jewel and escape, but you can also win by eliminating rival teams. A notable feature this time is that The Getaway is also playable in Zero Build mode, catering to players who prefer to skip *Fortnite*'s building mechanics. You can enjoy it in Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked formats.

The Getaway Start and End Dates

You can play The Getaway in *Fortnite* right now, but mark your calendar because it will disappear on April 1 at 12 a.m. Eastern Time. I highly recommend taking advantage of this window to play, as you can also earn XP that will contribute to your Battle Pass progression.

That's everything you need to know about playing The Getaway in *Fortnite*. For more tips and insights on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
