Fortnite OG Season 7 Launch Date Revealed

Fortnite OG Season 7 Launch Details

Fortnite OG made a strong return, offering updated versions of classic seasons that changed weekly. This move was well-received by players, leading to a significant increase in player numbers over the following months. Now, it has become a permanent feature in the game, with plans to continue into 2025. Epic Games has confirmed that the next season of Fortnite OG will begin later this week.

Regular updates from the developers provide hints about what's coming next. Currently, we know that Fortnite OG will cycle through seasons, and now that the new season of Fortnite battle royale has launched, the stage is set for OG to take center stage.

Here’s everything you need to know about when Fortnite OG Season 7 launches. We’ll cover all the official details from Epic Games, some insights on what to expect, and a summary of how things went last time. As more news emerges, this page will be updated accordingly.

Fortnite OG Season 7 Release Date

Fortnite OG Season 7 will launch on December 11, 2025 at 3:30AM ET / 12:30AM PT / 8:30AM GMT. This information comes directly from the in-game Battle Pass screen. You can expect the update to go live a few hours after entering downtime.

Is Fortnite OG Offline?

Fortnite OG is currently offline, having been removed from Fortnite just before the launch of Chapter 7. However, it will make a return on December 11, 2025.

Fortnite OG Season 7 Changes

Epic Games has revealed what’s coming in Fortnite OG Season 7. Map updates include Polar Peak, Happy Hamlet, and Frosty Flights. New items such as the Boom Box, Suppressed Sniper Rifle, and Balloons will join the loot pool, along with a holiday-themed Battle Pass.

I’m particularly excited about the addition of the X-4 Stormwing, a fully flyable biplane that can carry your squadmates on its wings. Later in the season, players will also have the chance to wield the Infinity Blade, a powerful legendary weapon that must be pulled from a stone to activate.

Fortnite OG is now a dedicated mode moving forward, cycling through Chapter 1 seasons in a way similar to how things worked at the end of 2023, though slightly extended. Chapter 1 Season 2 ended on March 25, 2025, Season 3 concluded on June 8, 2025, and Season 4 ended on August 7, 2025. This pattern recreates the original run, introducing changes to the loot pool and features.

What is Fortnite OG?

Fortnite OG launched in November 2023 and returned the game to the 2018 map. It started in Season 5, featuring Tilted Towers, a throwback weapon loot pool, and several OG skins available in the store. Each week, Epic Games advanced the clock to the next season, rotating through Season 6, Season 7/8, and then Season 9/10.

The map was redesigned to reflect a more classic style, both visually and in terms of level design. Iconic locations like Frosty Flights made a comeback, along with old-school vehicles like the X-4 Stormwing. This lasted until December 2, 2023, when the game transitioned to a new season.

Fortnite OG returned on December 6, 2024, and is now a permanent mode with its own seasonal cycle.

Fortnite OG Map

Ziplines and ascenders have been added in Zero Build to improve movement. As the seasons change, we can expect the map to evolve as well. With Season 6, players will be able to jump into the floating island.

FAQs

When is Fortnite OG coming back?

Fortnite OG is offline until December 11, 2025. That’s when Season 7 will launch, and the mode will be unavailable until then.

Will Fortnite OG rotate seasons?

As a permanent game mode, Fortnite OG will definitely have its own seasonal content to keep things fresh. Expect regular changes to the seasonal cycle.

How much does the Fortnite OG Pass cost?

The Fortnite OG Pass costs 1,000 V-Bucks. This gives you the chance to earn three skins, along with a variety of other items. It’s worth noting that unlike the main Battle Pass, the Fortnite OG pass does not include any V-Bucks, so you won’t earn any back while working through it.
