Over 44 Million People Played Fortnite OG In One Day
Fortnite Comet
Over 44 million people logged in to play Fortnite OG on Saturday, November 4, making it the biggest day in Fortnite history.
Fornite OG went live on Friday November 3, and takes players back to simpler times. Fornite OG is the game as it was in 2018, complete with unvaulted items, weapons like the LMG and Pump Shotgun, returning vehicles and a throwback map.
Throughout November Epic Games will update Fortnite OG each week with new and old items, skins that are a mash-up of some of the most popular outfits since the game launched, and new ways to play.
Way to start things off with a big bang 💥
We're blown away by the response to #FortniteOG. Yesterday was the biggest day in Fortnite’s history with over 44.7 MILLION players jumping in and 102 MILLION hours of play.
To all Fortnite players, OG and new, THANK YOU!— Fortnite (@FortniteGame) November 5, 2023
The next content drop is due to hit on November 9, when the cube returns to Loot Lake, and the Double Barrel Shotgun, Clinger and Six Shooter will all be available.
Fortnite OG isn’t the only thing happening in the game right now - you can can visit the Fortnite Shop and pick up a skin of Stranger Things’ Eleven, complete with telekinetic Eggo waffles emote.
Fortnite OG will only be around for the month of November, then on December 4 Epic will release Chapter 5 of Fortnite - the map has already leaked, so you can start planning where you’re going to drop already.
