While we do know that Fortnite OG Chapter 2 will launch tomorrow, we don’t know much about it. We expect it to jump between Chapter 2 seasons, including the original skins, mechanics, and map locations. We do know that there will be aFortnite Remix live eventbefore the new season goes live, though how it’ll play out is still a mystery.

The best place to keep up on specific updates closer to the launch of the new season ofFortniteOG is theFortnite Status X / Twitter account. We’ll be sure to keep this page up to date as well.

What is Fortnite OG?

FortniteOG launched in November 2023 and switched the game all the way back to the 2018 map. Specifically, it started in Season 5, with the return of Tilted Towers, a throwback weapon loot pool, and several OG skins to buy in the store. Each week, Epic Games moved the clock forward to the next season, rotating through Season 6, Season 7/8, and then Season 9/10.

The map went back to a more classic style, visually and in terms of level design. Iconic locations like Frosty Flights came back, as did old-school vehicles like the X-4 Stormwing. This lasted until December 2, 2023, when the game switched over to a new season.FortniteOG has not been live in the game ever since but is scheduled to return later this week, focusing on Chapter 2.

What we want to see in Fortnite OG Chapter 2

We don’t have any official details on whatFortniteOG Chapter 2 will include when it launches, but we certainly have some wishes for what we’d like to see. Primarily, we’d like to see Epic Games rotate through some iconic Chapter 2 mechanics and locations. The cadence of last year was pretty great, with new content dropping each week. This would be great to see again, but with Chapter 2.

While we’d definitely like to seeFortniteOG Chapter 1 return, we don’t want things to be as short-lived as last time. The absolutely gigantic player numbers during the first drop showed just how hungry fans are for a paired-back and more classic-feelingFortniteexperience, so perhaps it’s time forFortniteOG to become its own mode. This would give players the choice to kick back to 2018 when they want, while also having the new seasons run parallel. Of course, this would split the player base significantly, so we doubt this is how things will work whenFortniteOG returns.
