However, some players will remember that Season 7 lasted a bit longer than was intended. Epic Games decided to extend the previous season by two weeks while also including Overtime challenges for players to earn Season 8’s Battle Pass for free.

Along with the end date for the next season, the Playstation Event page gave a small teaser that read: “‘X’ marks the spot.”

The page also included the previously released image of a Pirate Hook, which could be signaling the imminent arrival of many pirate themed outfits and extras.

It seems as if Epic Games will be cramming a lot of elements for Season 8, as previous teasers have all but confirmed the inclusion of dragons, pirates and sinister monsters.
