Fortnite’s original map will return again (again) in 2024, following its impending destruction (again) during tonight’s The Big Bang live event.
Epic Games made the announcement this afternoon on social media, after the wild popularity of the current “OG” season which saw the hugely-popular battle royale return to its roots.
“Ngl the OG season far exceeded our expectations,” Epic Games wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter. “So much so that we’d like to bring it back… *opens 2024 roadmap doc* In the meantime, see you on the Battle Bus.”
Fortnite player engagement during the current OG mini-season has seen the six-year-old battle royale break new records. Just yesterday, Epic Games announced that 100 million players had logged on to experience (or re-experience) the game’s original Island map over the course of November.
