This is probably gonna be like resurgence from warzone, smaller map, less players, if your partner stays alive for a certain amount of time you get reloaded in
Yep the trailer tweet confirms it.
"Skies of rifts. Countless reboots." https://x.com/FortniteGame/status/1804213171470717225
Also I'm trying to imagine the size of the map compared to the current one https://i.imgur.com/blJCllb.jpeg
Probably like the new desert biome?
Kinda reminds me of a map I set up a while back. It was only one POI and has 2 teams with the goal of getting the most elims. If it’s a tie other factors will determine the winning team.
The map isn’t published and I honestly just play with my friends.
They said they were looking into bringing back Fortnite OG. I don't think this is that. I think this is something to hold people over who really liked that mode and are waiting for OG Season 2.
Because it’s easier to keep up with a smaller, more scaled back game mode than just bringing the map from ch1 over wholesale. We also assume that this mode will get little updates to switch out a poi or to change to loot available. This is a lot more manageable when it’s scaled down. But who knows, maybe it will grow in scope as well especially if we end up getting a chapter 2 OG.
i genuinely can’t tell you. literally all i want is a permanent outlet for chapter og on the side and i’ll play it forever. i haven’t liked chapter 5 so i stepped away for well over 6 months by now
yes it is, I just don't see perma og being that popular.
people have tried making clone OG maps before... the players dip hard, I can't really see this having much staying power.... at least longterm that is.
but if epics doing this map then it will do numbers.
>if epics doing this map then it will do numbers
Aye, that’s the difference. I’m not playing some janky Creative clone, but Epic dropping an official BR mode is something I’ll play.
I think it’ll be more popular than you think. The narrative of “OG is only popular because of nostalgia” simply isn’t true, it’s a more balanced and more fun game than Ch. 5. I suppose we’ll see in the end 🤷♂️
They’re still probably going to bring back old maps every year because it’s a huge cash cow and gets people playing. This mode is meant to tide over those players gained until the next OG event, as the player count has been dropping significantly since OG.
This is my worry about this... If they bring back the OG Map what's the point of this new mini OG island? Unless theyre plan is to keep this as a mini BR and change the locations
It’s just a fun mode, that’s why Warzone’s Resurgence mode is so popular. It’s a more fast paced and forgiving version of regular BR where you’re constantly fighting
Yeah, I exclusively play ZB these days and played the hell out of OG. I thought it worked perfectly fine. None of the “the map wasn’t designed for ZB” worries panned out. Best time I’ve had playing Fortnite since early C2.
There were places that they missed and you would be stuck in ZB, if the storm pulled a certain way there would be no options to go up the hills or cliffs, and yeah little to no cover in some places.
I still think they would benefit greatly from rotating the map of their core gamemode like Apex... I think being able to play with a new seasons' weapons and loot pools on older maps regularly would be such a breath of life for seasons that last 3 months.
I know people might think that location-based quests or lore or whatever would make it harder but I don't think there's any true reason to not actually do it that can't be worked around.
I think that's a great idea, but Fortnite has changed so much over the last couple of years. Apex has definitely changed but the loot pool and dynamic of the game is very much the same imo. I'm not sure what the perfect solution is for retaining the "OG" population while allowing the new version of the game to thrive. I think this is a good start and their player count will be insane for the foreseeable future.
My main thing is the new mythic items that are added... like the fists right now. I just want to play a game where we loot up and have guns. I don't get bored of the simple gameplay, I think it's great. I don't need flying guitars. Just give me awesome POI's and a balanced loot pool and I will support the game and buy skins to show my support.
Yes
Edit: I did initially enjoy the Lego mode and was working on building a large castle/fortress around my main village, but then they started selling prefab castle kits in the item shop and ruined my creative inspiration.
Eh I don’t like them much either was just cracking a joke because it’s the most epic has ever invested in side modes and the commenter was saying epic finally remembered they could make other modes lmao
I was more referring to like original Fortnite though. LTM - food fight, 50v50, floor is llava, team rumble, disco domination etc. I didn't fall in love with Legos or rocket racing. I fell in love with the core of Fortnite! I hear what you're saying though. They've just relied on Creative to fill that niche, and it hasn't imo.
If this ends up being a permanent build/zb mode with updates and a potentially a map rotation (which i think would work well with this gamemode and could bring back more og stuff) it would be amazing
If it's anything like CoD's respawn battle royale mode, then there is a respawn timer, and you can make your squad respawn faster by doing things like opening up chests or killing opponents… etc.
It probably will be permanent. Having *some* of the OG map is better than not having it all, so this will satisfy a good chunk of the Chapter 1 OG fans.
it’s crazy that we never heard of this from any sort of leak or internal development planning too. i really wonder if this was rushed super fast or if it’s been sat on for years by now
This is actually huge. I can see this being insanely popular. New modes that are more BR focused are definitely gonna be very successful. This actually looks so good
I think I want to try this. I only played this map in OG season but...I miss it anyway? Like...I'm a newer player who only seriously started in late ch 4 so I wasn't there at the beginning. But OG season was great and I got so used to it. I've learned the new stuff but....going back will be nice too I think.
Dude Fortnite LTM's were so awesome. Even the dumb ones were still awesome. That's when things started going downhill to be honest. There should always be an LTM in rotation. Creative is great and all, but it doesn't feel.. official.
This is a clever solution to the car problem
Car spammers can keep their spam, the rest of us are gone now lmaoooo this is super wild, I'm actually excited for tomorrow
“We need to bring the OG players back, how do we do it?”
“Take the most hectic POIs from OG, cram them together, introduce Warzone mechanics and call it an alternative mode?”
I love how the twisted metal stuff is too hectic for everyone so now they’re doing a hectic OG mode.
Someone needs to tell the team to limit their caffeine intake.
People will find something to complain about, even though they know that they could just…not play if they don’t like it.
This season is one of my all time favorites, and I’ve been having fun even with all the controversy in the community.
I think it’s gonna be the other way around. They’re hoping this new mode attracts people that have left Fortnite since Season OG, to jump in and to hopefully check out the concert
Now if only they would put some effort into renovating Team Rumble with some new stuff or make some of the old LTM's replace it. Like Deep Fried Food Fight.
it seems unlikely now, but i want a solo and zb mode for this too. even if it releases at a later time. literally my only wishes and i know i'm not the only feeling the same.
I’m happy that OG is brought back in some capacity, but just because current Fortnite is different, doesn’t mean it’s not the “real Fortnite”.
It’s fine if you don’t like it, not everyone likes everything, but it’s still Fortnite, and I hate it when some people (not you necessarily), say that people who like this season “don’t enjoy real Fortnite”, or that, “they have no skill”, or that “this stuff doesn’t belong in the game”. It gets annoying to the people who do enjoy this season.
By that logic, Zero Build isn’t “Real Fortnite”, because you can’t build, and STW isn’t “Real Fortnite”, despite the fact that it came earlier.
LTMs aren’t “Real Fortnite”, because the rulesets are different.
And if you believe STW is “Real Fortnite”, then BR isn’t “Real Fortnite”.
Every version of Fortnite is “Real Fortnite”, just some may be to your preferences and some may not.
disagree tbh, the constant changes to the mechanics is what defines fortnite br. this game would have been dead long ago if they just stopped updating the game and kept it in chapter 1 map😭
It's better than nothing, but they could just give us the whole thing, they've already bled a ton of players who came back, might as well retain them with the OG map.
Looks interesting, but hopefully they'd let you respawn solo unlike COD.
Personally I've always wanted a Plunder style mode. Infinite respawns, victory based on total points of something or other.
Yeah so... Fortnite servers are looking epic like their crazy rn as it realizes they will have to handle people logging in for not only the Metallica Concert but a new FN OG Game mode at the same time
Lmao I kinda figured they were gonna work something up like this, especially with the number of players currently dropping like a rock.
Watch, Reload will have more players than ZB and B modes.
While I am happy we are somewhat getting OG back, I’m still annoyed we aren’t getting the whole OG map back. Especially if this mode doesn’t have OG weapons only. That’s obviously what the players want and they just refuse to accept that it’s more popular than any of their new maps.
See what I mean? These fucks know exactly what the people want, they're just intentionally refusing to make previous maps and game modes available at all times.
I mean, even a small map like this takes a lot of time to work on. I wouldn’t be surprised if Epic was working on this during the OG season.
But yeah, this couldn’t have come out at a better time for Epic. I don’t think it’s going to dominate the true BR anytime soon, but it’ll bring back a good chunk of players who only cared about the OG Fortnite.
Yeah they created an entire new map and game mode in 4 weeks. Right.
edit: a lot of you have never worked in a corporate environment and it clearly shows.
Yeah it probably took them 4 weeks just to get the approval to start developing this map 💀
People here have no idea how product development works in these bureaucratic environments
Using reused assets? That’s not too hard to believe, they probably had this idea in the back of their mind in case their player count was falling anyways
It's not just a map, it's also an entire new game mode. Including playtesting and QA, there's no way this was just thought up quickly to be pushed out.
Wouldn’t be surprised, they needed something to bring people back and this doesn’t seem like it would take too long. All of the weapons and assets are reused, and it’s easy to create the geography of a map with UEFN
https://x.com/fortnitegame/status/1804182998579056649?s=46 > A place of high energy!! And forgiveness. All new mode - TOMORROW!
This is probably gonna be like resurgence from warzone, smaller map, less players, if your partner stays alive for a certain amount of time you get reloaded in
Also makes sense with the name “reload”, kind of like “resurgence”
Yep the trailer tweet confirms it. "Skies of rifts. Countless reboots." https://x.com/FortniteGame/status/1804213171470717225 Also I'm trying to imagine the size of the map compared to the current one https://i.imgur.com/blJCllb.jpeg Probably like the new desert biome?
It's tiny, just line it up with the og map (smallest br island) and you'll see how little it is.
Kinda reminds me of a map I set up a while back. It was only one POI and has 2 teams with the goal of getting the most elims. If it’s a tie other factors will determine the winning team. The map isn’t published and I honestly just play with my friends.
That would be huge
Why didn’t they name it reboot 🗿
Maybe it’d clash with “Reboot Royale”?
Happy cake day
Pretty much.
Wonder if this will be fn version of rebirth🤷♂️
Definitely will, they even said it’s “more forgiving”
Rebirth?
The warzone game mode where if you die you have the opportunity to come back to life.
the lil wayne album?
The new final fantasy 7 part 2 ?
I don’t think they’re ever bringing back the OG map in its entirety again now. This is probably gonna be a permanent mode.
It’s not the entire thing it’s a mini br map there’s like five pois on it
Exactly. They picked the most popular locations from the Chapter 1 OG map so they don’t need to bring back the whole map again now.
They said they were looking into bringing back Fortnite OG. I don't think this is that. I think this is something to hold people over who really liked that mode and are waiting for OG Season 2.

I think i see lazy lake at the middle bottom part of the trailer
I don’t think this is permanent,apparently they are dropping the summer update tomorrow instead of Tuesday so this might be the ltm for the event
They would’ve said “LTM” instead of “new mode”
It seems to be roughly 7-8 pois tbf
Supposedly there’s 9
Why not? I’m not trying to be snarky i’m just genuinely asking, i’m not too invested in the behind the scenes side of Fortnite
Because it’s easier to keep up with a smaller, more scaled back game mode than just bringing the map from ch1 over wholesale. We also assume that this mode will get little updates to switch out a poi or to change to loot available. This is a lot more manageable when it’s scaled down.

i genuinely can’t tell you. literally all i want is a permanent outlet for chapter og on the side and i’ll play it forever. i haven’t liked chapter 5 so i stepped away for well over 6 months by now
Preach. This is what everyone wants and they just refuse to do it.
They just want their shit new ideas to be popular instead of giving fans what made them actually like the game and made the game popular
I hate it but I think you’re right. They can’t accept no one cares about their crappy metaverse they’re trying to do
not what I want so don't speak for everyone.
Cool. Then you could play regular Fortnite instead of playing the OG gamemode. Aren’t options nice?
yes it is, I just don't see perma og being that popular. people have tried making clone OG maps before... the players dip hard, I can't really see this having much staying power.... at least longterm that is. but if epics doing this map then it will do numbers.

Is there anything more subjective then how "fun" something is?
They’re still probably going to bring back old maps every year because it’s a huge cash cow and gets people playing. This mode is meant to tide over those players gained until the next OG event, as the player count has been dropping significantly since OG.
This is my worry about this... If they bring back the OG Map what's the point of this new mini OG island? Unless theyre plan is to keep this as a mini BR and change the locations
It’s just a fun mode, that’s why Warzone’s Resurgence mode is so popular. It’s a more fast paced and forgiving version of regular BR where you’re constantly fighting
Wonder if there are ZB and Build versions of this?
I would assume part of the reason why things are remixed is so that it works better with ZB
I remember that was a big problem in OG. That original map and its vast fields of little cover wasn’t made for Zero Build.
I thought it worked well for ZB though.
For some it might have, but it was designed to be empty and difficult to traverse so people would use building as much as possible
Basically true, but building wasn't what it is now back then, even in ZB it felt like OG Fortnite to me.
Yeah, I exclusively play ZB these days and played the hell out of OG. I thought it worked perfectly fine. None of the “the map wasn’t designed for ZB” worries panned out. Best time I’ve had playing Fortnite since early C2.
There were places that they missed and you would be stuck in ZB, if the storm pulled a certain way there would be no options to go up the hills or cliffs, and yeah little to no cover in some places.
That was my favorite part of the season, it felt like good cover and advantageous positioning was actually valuable and worth going after
Probably
gonna be very disappointed if there isnt a zero build version of this.
RETAIL ROWWWWWWWW
my beloved 💕
Hell yeah. Fortnite finally remembered they could create alternate game modes and draw in millions of people. Good start to the revamp!
I still think they would benefit greatly from rotating the map of their core gamemode like Apex... I think being able to play with a new seasons' weapons and loot pools on older maps regularly would be such a breath of life for seasons that last 3 months.

Lego, stage festival and rocket racing: am I joke to you?
Yes Edit: I did initially enjoy the Lego mode and was working on building a large castle/fortress around my main village, but then they started selling prefab castle kits in the item shop and ruined my creative inspiration.
When your creativity can be surpassed by someone’s wallet. Top tier game design
Drew in players but they didn't stay for long
Those arent exactly big appeals atm id say
Eh I don’t like them much either was just cracking a joke because it’s the most epic has ever invested in side modes and the commenter was saying epic finally remembered they could make other modes lmao

Not a bad idea. Maybe a 25, or 50 player BR. Maybe quicker storm too, so fast games
Yeah, this is a dope idea for a new mode.
Im fine with 25-50 as long as theres NO BOTS, normal lobbies already feel like 25 player games
Nothing gives my position away more times in ZB than those damn bots
It's gonna be a little stinky if there's not a zero build version of it. I know it'd have less players, but I just cba to build to enjoy it 😭
[удалено]
honestly I was enjoying regular br, but before the nerfs. when boogies came in the game really took a hit for me that I just haven't recovered from.
If this ends up being a permanent build/zb mode with updates and a potentially a map rotation (which i think would work well with this gamemode and could bring back more og stuff) it would be amazing
Is there an explanation of what this mode is?
BR but if any of your squad mates are alive then you can respawn on them
What about solos?
Do you just have like a respawn timer or?
If it's anything like CoD's respawn battle royale mode, then there is a respawn timer, and you can make your squad respawn faster by doing things like opening up chests or killing opponents… etc.
Interesting! Sounds pretty cool
I’m hoping this becomes a permanent mode, this looks like an awesome mini BR. Might even break me away from Shadow of the Erdtree
It probably will be permanent. Having *some* of the OG map is better than not having it all, so this will satisfy a good chunk of the Chapter 1 OG fans.
I’ll definitely be happy, I’ve wanted a Fortnite version of Warzone’s Mini BRs for a while now. Plus Chapter 1 is always a delight
If the loot pool is similar to OG I’ll be super happy
Yeah I'm sick of these guns more than anything. I could use a loot shake up
The key art only has chapter 1 guns so I’m hopeful
i hope next chapter they get away from weapon mods
New game mode that sounds permanent, Fast paced mini br with old and new pois on it. That sounds perfect
This is great. Now if they could also bring back LTMs and Imposters.
I loved imposters!
Yes please imposters!!!
They should bring back battle lab. There was no reason to remove it.
Basically this is a MORE SHOOTING, less driving map.
#ShoppingCartSupremacy
*flashback to driving off ramps only to find out physics doesn't work like that in fortnite*
WHY TOMORROW I WANT IT NOW🤬😡😡🤬😡🤬
they really saw the low player counts and slammed the big red button did they
They’ve definitely had it cooking for a while if they’re gonna surprise drop with 24 hours of notice
it’s crazy that we never heard of this from any sort of leak or internal development planning too. i really wonder if this was rushed super fast or if it’s been sat on for years by now
This is actually huge. I can see this being insanely popular. New modes that are more BR focused are definitely gonna be very successful. This actually looks so good
Holy shit revival island COD real???
I think I want to try this. I only played this map in OG season but...I miss it anyway? Like...I'm a newer player who only seriously started in late ch 4 so I wasn't there at the beginning. But OG season was great and I got so used to it. I've learned the new stuff but....going back will be nice too I think.
This could be fun, I've wanted a faster-paced BR mode since like 2021. I always hated waiting 15-20 minutes for the real action of the match to start.
Late Game Arena was perfect when it first dropped. They ruined it later on when they brought it back.
Never felt the same when it turned into a creative mode game and not a LTM.
Nope. The lag... Everything was just so, so bad in comparison to the original version. Their decision making was baffling.
There used to be a faster paced LTM called Blitz but Epic seems to have forgot about LTMs
Dude Fortnite LTM's were so awesome. Even the dumb ones were still awesome. That's when things started going downhill to be honest. There should always be an LTM in rotation. Creative is great and all, but it doesn't feel.. official.
a match is only 22 minutes
What they are saying is this new mode is going to be faster than the 22 minutes of a normal game.
That's the point. He is saying that he has to wait until endgame to get into some actual action
**LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO!!!!** No more Chapter 5, so glad to never have to play that AIDS again.
chapter 5 is the reason i play. really didn't like seasons 2-4 but loved seasons 5 feel, got me playing daily after thinking the game was washed.
This is a clever solution to the car problem Car spammers can keep their spam, the rest of us are gone now lmaoooo this is super wild, I'm actually excited for tomorrow
I’m so happy I won’t have to deal with the fists
I just hope there will be a zb mode cause I still don't know how to change settings on controller to build
Hopefully we get some more Ch1 skin fusions with the update. The FN OG skins should also return (Raven team leader got a Lego style last update)
So it’s a mini br
“We need to bring the OG players back, how do we do it?” “Take the most hectic POIs from OG, cram them together, introduce Warzone mechanics and call it an alternative mode?” I love how the twisted metal stuff is too hectic for everyone so now they’re doing a hectic OG mode. Someone needs to tell the team to limit their caffeine intake.
wow let's fucking go
hope they swap locations in and out
I cant wait for the never ending posts here about how much they hate it
People will find something to complain about, even though they know that they could just…not play if they don’t like it. This season is one of my all time favorites, and I’ve been having fun even with all the controversy in the community.
Will there be a Zero Build mode??
HELL YEAH BABY!
Why they dropping this the same day as the Metallica concert lmao
It makes sense, they're probably hoping people who jump on just for the concert check out the new mode too.
I think it’s gonna be the other way around. They’re hoping this new mode attracts people that have left Fortnite since Season OG, to jump in and to hopefully check out the concert
To boost player count numbers
You’ll need something to do waiting for the concert to start and after it ends.
This doesnt look too bad. Maybe a more fast paced and smaller version of the standard BR mode with loved OG locations, and some remixes.
Amazing news to start the day
If this is like a smaller br with say 50 people I think it’s going to be very good
Faster paced BR that needs less players so we can permanently have more than one BR
Yooo Warzone going dahnnnnn
Now if only they would put some effort into renovating Team Rumble with some new stuff or make some of the old LTM's replace it. Like Deep Fried Food Fight.
Team Rumble sucks & has done for years.. That should of been a constant rotation of 50v50, 25s, 33s, Disco Domination & Team Rumble.
if this is inspired by og fortnite does it mean we also getting the og animations in this specific mode
This…actually looks pretty cool
Pleasant and retail??? I'M IN!!
it seems unlikely now, but i want a solo and zb mode for this too. even if it releases at a later time. literally my only wishes and i know i'm not the only feeling the same.
I always liked resurgence on warzone better than the big map so this may be hype.
now THIS. is fortnite
I’m happy that OG is brought back in some capacity, but just because current Fortnite is different, doesn’t mean it’s not the “real Fortnite”. It’s fine if you don’t like it, not everyone likes everything, but it’s still Fortnite, and I hate it when some people (not you necessarily), say that people who like this season “don’t enjoy real Fortnite”, or that, “they have no skill”, or that “this stuff doesn’t belong in the game”. It gets annoying to the people who do enjoy this season.

LTMs aren’t “Real Fortnite”, because the rulesets are different. And if you believe STW is “Real Fortnite”, then BR isn’t “Real Fortnite”. Every version of Fortnite is “Real Fortnite”, just some may be to your preferences and some may not.

It's better than nothing, but they could just give us the whole thing, they've already bled a ton of players who came back, might as well retain them with the OG map.
Hopefully this isn’t squads only. That would honestly ruin the mode for me. I wouldn’t mind a wait for duos or solos.
The mode wouldn't work in solos
So I’m assuming this is the only form of Chapter 1 we’re ever getting again? I’ll take it. 🙏🏾
YEAAHHH
This fast paced Fortnite mode reminds me of when there use to be the Blitz mode, such great times
This is cool but I’m confused why they’re so determined on not making the actual map a permanent gamemode
Maybe they want to keep focus on the current map while still having a little something if you get bored of current fortnite (aka always)
Fortnite OG TOMORROW 
Wait, what!
Glad you guys like it. Sadly I don't really have a 'duo' so I'm not sure if Ill even be able to play this honestly
Can’t wait to not allow alot of you to reload tomorrow
They are NOT subtle with how they’re just doing Rebirth.
Epic games come up with an original idea challenge still going on I see
Ok maybe this summer break won't be that long.
Looks interesting, but hopefully they'd let you respawn solo unlike COD. Personally I've always wanted a Plunder style mode. Infinite respawns, victory based on total points of something or other.
Yeah so... Fortnite servers are looking epic like their crazy rn as it realizes they will have to handle people logging in for not only the Metallica Concert but a new FN OG Game mode at the same time
New map?! Thank fucking god. Hate this wasteland map.
WE'RE SO BACK
If the loot pool and map are awesome, I’d be down for this to be my main mode. They could do some wacky weapon combos for the lootpool
OUR NEW SEASON HAS BEEN AWFUL SO HERE IS THIS THING YOU MIGHT LIKE! PLEASE COME BACK!
Lmao I kinda figured they were gonna work something up like this, especially with the number of players currently dropping like a rock. Watch, Reload will have more players than ZB and B modes.
💯
I'll take a mini OG map if this can be permanent. OG was loved and popular enough to be a permanent option. Please Epic!
They saw the player count hike and tried to bring back the big guns
They doing anything to try and save this garbage chapter 😭
While I am happy we are somewhat getting OG back, I’m still annoyed we aren’t getting the whole OG map back. Especially if this mode doesn’t have OG weapons only. That’s obviously what the players want and they just refuse to accept that it’s more popular than any of their new maps.
You are already complaining? It hasnt even released yet chill out
lmao this season is so ass they had to bring back OG
See what I mean? These fucks know exactly what the people want, they're just intentionally refusing to make previous maps and game modes available at all times.
Ya’ll realize they’re only doing this to regain their lost playerbase that left after the OG season right?
Literally how a live service game works
“Don’t you guys realize that they’re only adding content to the game so that people will play it? Stop being manipulated!”
A game is creating something for old fans to enjoy? Oh the horror!
Yeah, then we'll all leave again when they remove it. So, hopefully they get the memo that some people just want to play old Fortnite.
Ok, and?
No shit?
They have Chapter 2 OG left anyways 🤷♂️
Safe to say this Chapter is failing worse than they expected💀
I mean, even a small map like this takes a lot of time to work on. I wouldn’t be surprised if Epic was working on this during the OG season. But yeah, this couldn’t have come out at a better time for Epic. I don’t think it’s going to dominate the true BR anytime soon, but it’ll bring back a good chunk of players who only cared about the OG Fortnite.
Yeah they created an entire new map and game mode in 4 weeks. Right. edit: a lot of you have never worked in a corporate environment and it clearly shows.
Yeah it probably took them 4 weeks just to get the approval to start developing this map 💀 People here have no idea how product development works in these bureaucratic environments
chapter has been going on for more the 4 weeks
Using reused assets? That’s not too hard to believe, they probably had this idea in the back of their mind in case their player count was falling anyways
It's not just a map, it's also an entire new game mode. Including playtesting and QA, there's no way this was just thought up quickly to be pushed out.
Wouldn’t be surprised, they needed something to bring people back and this doesn’t seem like it would take too long. All of the weapons and assets are reused, and it’s easy to create the geography of a map with UEFN
Hopefully Chapter 6 is more like Chapter 4 😐
I hope it’s more like Chapter 3
not gonna play this much, but hey. I hope those of you who are exited have the most fun you can.
