Recent leaks surrounding the popular battle royale game Fortnite have sparked excitement among fans as multiple original weapons are set to make a comeback in the highly anticipated OG mode. Renowned leaker @HYPEX has shared insights that suggest the return of several fan-favorite weapons, further fueling speculation about the upcoming gameplay experience.
While Epic Games has yet to officially confirm the specifics of the loot pool for the OG mode, the credibility of the leaks has led many to view this information as a strong indication of what players can expect. Among the confirmed weapons is the iconic Pump Shotgun, a staple of Fortnite’s early gameplay.
In addition to the Pump Shotgun, players can look forward to the return of at least four other classic weapons:
- OG Rocket Launcher
- OG SMG
- OG Revolver
- Guided Missile
These weapons, originally introduced in the game’s earlier seasons, are expected to enhance the nostalgic experience for long-time players. However, it remains uncertain whether these weapons will be exclusive to Fortnite OG Chapter 1 Season 1 or if they will remain available throughout the entire OG timeline. It is likely that Epic Games will introduce additional weapons over the seasons, mirroring their original release dates from 2017.
Moreover, the OG mode is not just limited to the return of weapons. Leaks indicate that traps will also be making a comeback, with the Wall Dynamo trap already mentioned. Given the variety of traps that were part of the Battle Royale experience and those still present in Save The World mode, players can anticipate a range of traps to choose from.
In addition to classic weapons and traps, the OG mode is rumored to incorporate new mechanics that could change the way players engage with the game. Leaker @Egyptian_Leaker has suggested that Ziplines and Reboot Vans will be included in this nostalgic mode, adding a layer of modern gameplay elements to the classic experience. While further details on additional mechanics remain scarce, the inclusion of these features hints at a blend of old and new gameplay styles.
As Fortnite undergoes scheduled downtime on December 1, 2024, players eagerly await more revelations about the OG mode. The anticipation is heightened by the announcement that the OG mode will feature its own Battle Pass, which will be available as part of the Fortnite Crew subscription. This new Battle Pass is expected to offer exclusive rewards and challenges tailored to the OG experience.
With the return of beloved weapons, traps, and the introduction of innovative mechanics, Fortnite’s OG mode is shaping up to be a nostalgic yet fresh experience for players. As more information becomes available, fans will undoubtedly be on the lookout for updates that could enhance their gameplay and bring back memories of Fortnite’s earlier days.
Stay tuned for further updates as Epic Games continues to unveil details about this exciting new mode, and prepare to dive back into the world of Fortnite with a mix of classic elements and modern twists.
