Fortnite OG is making a permanent comeback! Epic Games has officially confirmed the return of the beloved classic map and loot starting December 6, 2024.
The Fortnite OG mode is officially back, and this time it’s here to stay. Epic Games just announced that fans can permanently relive the glory days of the original Fortnite experience starting December 6, 2024.
For those who are new to the hype, the OG mode features Fortnite’s original Battle Royale map, complete with iconic places, classic weapons, and the loot pool that defined Chapter 1. It’s a trip down memory lane for long-time players who have missed the simplicity and chaos of the early seasons.
Fortnite OG Release Date
Fortnite OG is returning on Friday, December 6, 2024, as per the official announcement from developer Epic Games.
“This. Is. Not. A. Drill. OG is coming BACK and is here to stay,” Epic Games confirmed the news in a post on social media. “Relive Battle Royale from the start and explore the OG map, collect OG loot, and relive OG seasons. Drop back in on December 6.“
Earlier leaks had hinted at a permanent return of Fortnite OG, with prominent leakers like HYPEX teasing the possibility of the classic map returning as a separate mode.
Now, the rumors are confirmed—this is not just a limited-time event but a permanent addition to the game.
Players can dive back into the iconic map, explore familiar locations, and collect OG loot as if it were 2017 all over again. Whether you prefer build or Zero Build modes, both will be supported when Fortnite OG returns next month.
