Epic Games has officially confirmed that it will be ending Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 and starting Remix Chapter 2 with a brand-new live event known as Remix: The Prelude.
As GameRant reports, after the huge success of Fortnite OG last year, Epic is once again bringing back a classic map as the next season will see players return to the Chapter 2 island, but not before another massive live event takes place on Friday.
Fortnite confirmed the event in the game’s official Twitter account, where the studio announced that the live event will be called Remix: The Prelude and will take place on November 1 at 3:30 PM PT / 6:30 PM ET / 10:30 PM GMT.
Fortnite OG was a short, one-month-long season that took players on a nostalgia trip as Epic brought back the game’s very first map, as well as Chapter 1’s weapons, items, vehicles, and more. The special season was a huge success for the studio, as Fortnite smashed its player count record with over 44.7 million players and 102 million hours played in just a single day. Fans have been begging Epic to bring back Fortnite OG as a separate playlist ever since, but the studio is opting to go one better by releasing Remix Chapter 2 this weekend.
