Fortnite OG Season: A Trip Down Memory Lane
The original Fortnite experience, known for its unique blend of survival and building elements, was a revolutionary genre for BR titles. Its return at the end of 2025 saw Fortnite shattering player count records, peaking at over 100 million players in November.
Epic Games’ recent post on X (formerly Twitter) left little doubt about the OG season’s return.
“Ngl the OG season far exceeded our expectations,” the post read, hinting at a 2025 comeback. The announcement concluded with a familiar call to action: “In the meantime, see you on the Battle Bus.”
Epic Games hasn’t confirmed, though, when the OG season will return to Fortnite. The tweet mentions the 2025 roadmap, meaning it could return anytime throughout the year.
The response from the Fortnite community to the news has been overwhelmingly positive. Fans have expressed their excitement in comments. Some have called it the “GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME.” On the other hand, some have advocated for the OG season to become a standalone game mode in Fortnite.
Currently, Fortnite is gearing up for Chapter Five and the much-anticipated Big Bang event. The event, featuring popular musician Eminem, is set to mark the beginning of the game’s next era.
