Nostalgia is a very strong emotion and it does work wonders! Fortnite OG showed just how powerful the feeling can be.
Fortnite just revealed that the month of November was a huge milestone month for the game. Bringing back OG Fortnite to the game was probably one of the best things that could have happened, with new record setting player count on the horizon.
The official Fortnite Twitter account revealed that they had over 100-million active players in November, which is probably all thanks to the short, but sweet, return of OG Fortnite, even making those who haven't played in years try the game once more, for nostalgia's sake.

Who would have thought that nostalgia would be so powerful, eh? 100-million players are an insanelly high number that not many games can match, not even newly released games have been able to gain such a following right after release, and Fortnite is over 5-years old already.
It had been revealed that when OG Fortnite went live almost 45-million players jumped onto the servers, which was already record-breaking, but now Epic Games have revealed the actual numbers throughout the entire month of November and it looks like OG Fortnite was the best thing to have happened to the game in a while.
The latest Fortnite season will be capped off with a live-concert from iconic rapper Eminem, before we head into the next chapter in Fortnite's story. Will the game be able to top the 100-million monthly players though? Maybe if Epic decides to bring back OG Mode again in a few years.
