Fortnite’s Chapter 4 Season OG will revisit the Chapter 1 Season 5 map on November 3, but will players be able to preload?

Epic Games plans on rereleasing Fortnite’s classic map from Chapter 1 Season 5 in the upcoming season. As such, the anticipation for Chapter 4 Season OG is through the roof for longtime fans riding the nostalgia train.

Notably, players can expect POIs like the Tilted Towers to return. Epic hasn’t confirmed the other POIs that will feature on the OG map, though leaks from dataminers point to the likes of Lazy Links, Dusty Divot, and Greasing Grove making a comeback.

Of course, the user base is especially interested in when they’ll be able to dive into the classic content. Fortunately, that much has been made abundantly clear.

Will Fortnite’s OG map return in Chapter 4 be available to preload?

No, preloading will not be available for the OG map. But Fortnite players should keep an eye out for downtimes so they’ll know when to hop into the experience once Chapter 4 Season OG arrives on Friday, November 3.
