Originally introduced in Chapter 1 Season 5, it's back for another round in Chapter 6 Season 2. Here's everything you need to know about playing The Getaway, including its duration.

Playing The Getaway in Fortnite

Getting started with The Getaway in *Fortnite* is straightforward. Launch *Fortnite* on your preferred platform, head to the Lobby, and navigate to the Discover tab. You should easily spot The Getaway there—just hit the Play button to join the queue.

If The Getaway doesn't appear in the Discover tab, don't worry. Simply use the search bar located in the top left corner of the Lobby, type in "The Getaway," and the mode should appear instantly, ready for you to jump in.

What Is The Getaway?

The Getaway is an exciting heist-themed game mode where your mission is to snatch a jewel from the map and make a swift escape in a Getaway Van. This is a PvP mode, pitting you against other teams vying for the same prize.

Victory goes to the first three teams that successfully secure a jewel and escape. Alternatively, you can also win by eliminating rival teams. What makes this iteration of The Getaway even more appealing is its availability in Zero Build mode, perfect for those who prefer to skip *Fortnite*'s building mechanics. You can enjoy The Getaway in Duos, Squads, Unranked, and Ranked formats.

The Getaway is currently live in *Fortnite*, but mark your calendars: it will disappear on April 1 at 12 a.m. Eastern Time. Make sure to play during this window, as you'll also earn XP that contributes to your Battle Pass progression.
