The full Fortnite OG update schedule has been revealed, meaning we now know when Season 9 and Season X content is set to arrive in the battle royale. 

Fortnite has come full circle with the return of the OG map, with classic landing spots for players to visit and new activities like finding secret Gnomes. But it doesn't stop there, as older content from past seasons is set to be slowly unvaulted as part of Fortnite OG. You can learn more about the schedule below.

When does Season 9 start?

According to the official website, Season 9 of Fortnite OG is set to begin on November 23, 2023, which also coincides with the release of Season X content.

Subtitled the 'Blast Off' seasons, the hotfix that is released on this date will feature weapons like the Heavy Sniper Rifle, Proximity Grenade Launcher, Air Strike, and Junk Rift.

If you're looking for new ways to get around the Island, you'll be able to add Storm Flips and Jetpacks to your loadout, while Ballers will also be unvaulted so you can roll around the map in style.

This will be the final update of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season OG, so make the most of it before the old map disappears for good!
