Fortnite OG has taken us all the way back to the Chapter 1 map and has already introduced several items from the earliest seasons of the ever popular battle royale.

This season, the Fortnite map and contents will be evolving through several updates throughout November 2023. Each update is due to add different items, vehicles, and even biomes from seasons past.

Without further ado, here's the Fortnite OG schedule.

With the season in full swing, there's still one more content update to look forward to that wraps up the end of Fortnite OG with, quite literally, a bang!

The Fortnite Big Bang live event begins on Saturday, 2nd December and looks like it will be similar to the event that ended Chapter 1. However, the teaser does show that there is a Mine attached to the rocket, so the ending could be very different to last time.

It's also likely that the Big Bang event marks the beginning of the next chapter, but nothing has been officially confirmed by Epic Games just yet. Check out our estimated Fortnite Chapter 5 release date guide for learn more as we will be updating this as more information is released.
