Start of Fortnite OG Season 6
Today marks the start of Fortnite OG Season 6, accompanied by the highly anticipated Hotfix Update 27.00. This season promises a regular dose of nostalgia, continually changing the game with weekly flashbacks to past chapters and adding fresh content.
Update date and availability
The hotfix update is expected to be released on November 9, 2023, although the exact time has not yet been confirmed. A significant change from previous updates is that this update will be available for a full week. Furthermore, the transition will likely take place without any server downtime, as this is only a hotfix and not a major update.

Fortnite OG map changes
With the transition to Chapter 1 Season 6, the Fortnite map will be reworked again. A prominent feature will be a large tornado over Loot Lake, as confirmed by Epic Games. However, other possible changes remain uncertain, such as the appearance of the Spooky Castle or the planted cornfields at Fatal Fields.
New weapons and items
The loot pool is also undergoing adjustments with Hotfix 27.00, providing players with a variety of new weapons and items for the coming week. These include the Double-Barreled Shotgun, Sticky Grenade, Gun Iron, Freezer Trap, Pocket Fort, and Turrets. These new additions are intended to increase the variety of gameplay and open up new strategic options for players.
The return of vehicles
Fortnite fans can look forward to the return of popular vehicles. The hotfix brings the quad ram and driftboard back to Battle Royale, promising a variety of ways to get around. This is a welcome change from the previous vehicles like golf carts and shopping carts.
