Fortnite OG Season 4 start date for the next throwback season
The Fortnite OG Season 4 release date is fast approaching, with the new season set to bring a host of classic content, as well as a tease that the game could be set to change history in the classic mode
The upcoming Fortnite OG season is set to bring a significant change to the beloved island, if the latest teaser is anything to go by.
Since Fortnite OG launched as a standalone mode, it's managed to find its footing pretty fast. The introduction of an exclusive pass for players, and throwback to classic seasons along with their cosmetics has been a game-changer, particularly as it allows players to revisit iconic POIs and annihilate enemies with weapons that have been inactive in Fortnite for years.
This is a refreshing contrast to the current mainline season, which includes a new Mandalorian Fortnite skin and Jar Jar Binks NPC in a Star Wars crossover that got its own dedicated mini season.
The upcoming Fortnite OG Season 4 is on its way, so you might want to wrap up that OG Pass quickly before the introduction of a new season reflecting the game's fourth ever season, aptly named Brace for Impact. This is well-timed, as the superhero-themed classic season aligns with Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3, which is also speculated to feature spandex-wearing heroes.
But when exactly can we anticipate the launch of Fortnite OG Season 4, and what will it include? Here's everything you need to know about the Fortnite OG Season 4 release date and the forthcoming content drop.
Fortnite OG Season 4 release date
The release date for Fortnite OG Season 4 is scheduled for Saturday, June 7 at 4pm PDT / 7pm EDT, and Sunday, June 8 at 12am BST. This date has been verified by the Battle Pass screen for the OG Season 3 Pass, coinciding with the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 release date which was recently brought forward a day, as disclosed by @ShiinaBR.
The time is an estimate based on the current OG pass's end time, with the anticipated five-hour season-spanning downtime added on top. This time is not yet confirmed, but it's a fairly solid estimate.
The timing of the new season couldn't be more perfect, as it coincides with an original superhero-themed Chapter 4 and the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3, which is also set to feature a mix of original and licensed superheroes.
What can we expect from Fortnite OG Season 4?
Currently, there's just a single teaser hinting at the arrival of Fortnite OG Season 4. But before diving into that, let's look back at the content introduced in the iconic Chapter 1 Season 4.
Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 4 saw the introduction of characters The Visitor and Carbide, the deployment of the Burst Assault Rifle and Drum Gun, and the memorable meteor strike on Dusty Depot, scattering debris across the map and altering numerous points of interest.
Epic Games has started to drop hints about Fortnite OG Season 4, tweeting an image of a glitched television screen with the mysterious caption "anyone got eyes on Tilted," suggesting a historic twist where the meteor hits Tilted Towers instead of Dusty Depot. It's a daring move, especially since OG aims to serve up a hearty slice of nostalgia, however, it undeniably adds a unique flair to the mode.
The release date for Fortnite OG Season 4 is fast approaching, and if the hints from Fortnite are to be believed, this could be a daring move for the mode, taking inspiration from the classic season and flipping it upside down. You may want to loot Tilted Towers before it disappears once more.
