Embark on a blast from the past with Fortnite's OG Season, but brace for a twist: Season 8's signature locales won't be making a comeback.
As the Fortnite community gears up for the nostalgia-fueled journey in the OG Season, a recent tweet from FortniteBR has made it clear: "Rip Season 8. It will not be returning during #FortniteOG."

Despite the absence of popular Points of Interest (POIs) like Lazy Lagoon and Sunny Steps, the spirit of Season 8 lives on through its items. The v27.10 update promises to unearth treasures from the vault, such as the Poison Dart Trap, Itemized Glider Redeploy, and the much-coveted Buried Treasure. However, it's worth noting that the Poison Dart Trap will be conspicuously absent from Zero Build, aligning with the evolving dynamics of gameplay.
"More things will be unvaulted (and dug up) in v27.10, including the Poison Dart Trap, Itemized Glider Redeploy, and Buried Treasure. Note: the Poison Dart Trap will not be in Zero Build."
The OG Season isn't just about reminiscing; it's about action. Players can strike from the skies with the X-4 Stormwing, famously piloted by Sgt. Winter, or cause a blast from the past with the Pirate Cannon, perfect for launching teammates into the fray.
The game's continual evolution keeps the thrill alive, ensuring that even with Season 8's POIs missing, the adventure never truly ends.
