Fortnite OG is a runaway success, as yesterday marked the most successful day in the game's history. According to Epic, 44.7 million players logged in over Sunday, far more than even 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:high-profile events like thꩲe Travis Scott concert could pull in.
This reignites calls for Fortnite OG to become a permanent ad🥃di🌃tion to the game, as players are loving the trip down memory lane. Still, Epic remains tight-lipped on its future, so right now, it's all set to disappear on December 2, bringing in the next chapter. This doesn't give fans much time to make the most of the nostalgia, even though it's seemingly Epic's most successful event yet.
"We're blown away by the response to #FortniteOG," reads a message on the Fortnite Twitter account. "Yesterday was the biggest day in Fortnite’s history with over 44.7 MILLION players jumping in and 102 MILLION hours of play."
Unsurprisingly, the concurrent player record was also beaten yesterday - having been beaten again just two days prior. On Sunday, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:more than six million players logged in at on🍒ce, the highest amount since records were made public. It beat the♛ previous records by a staggering two million.
Incidentally, Fortnite OG's release removes a plot hole from Avengers: Endgame. In the 2019 film, Thor and his pals could be seen playing Fortnite Chapter 1. This scene took place in November 2023, so completely unintentionally, the inclusion now makes sense. I mean🙈, I doubt Marvel was given a four-year heads-up on a Fortnite event just for this♌ scene.
Controversy regarding the season's monetisation hasn't been enough to halt Fortnite OG's success, it seems, despite the new battle pass not being as good of a deal as previous passes. It only has half the amount of rewards, but costs the usual 950 V-꧂bucks. With calls to extend the season, it's possible that it could end up having more added to it, but that's all speculation right now.
The map to💎 the next chapter already seems to have leaked, so Epic is poised to end Fortnite OG on December 2. That said, Fortnite OG's success probably means we can expect Epic to bank on nostalgia even more further down the road, bringing back previous seasons for those who miss the good ol' days.
