Grab your Glider and jump off the Battle Bus as Fortnite OG enters Chapter 1 Season 2, bringing back beloved POIs like Tilted Towers and Shifty Shafts! The days of the Fort Knights are upon us again, so rise to the challenge and fight valiantly with upcoming loot like the Boogie Bomb and Minigun. Chapter 1 Season 2 starts today and ends March 25, 2025 ET.
Chapter 1 Season 2 reintroduces POIs from the classic Chapter 1 Season 2, so get ready to cause HOA complaints at Snobby Shores once again!
Here are the nostalgic points of interest that await:
Let’s be honest, you’re gonna drop here first. Boasting towering high-rises, Tilted Towers is a magnet for both Chests and danger! Take refuge and loot up in the slew of apartment complexes and offices, or brave the streets of the concrete jungle.
OG Chapter 1 Season 2 will expand the loot pool with gear from the classic Chapter 1 Season 2 being added on a regular basis:
Small Shield Potion (live now!) - Need a quick boost to your defense? This is your go-to drink, offering 25 Shield each ‘til you’re at 50!
Multi-Surface Damage Trap (live now!) - The spike is mightier than the sword. Place the upgraded Damage Trap on a floor, ceiling, or wall to ambush unsuspecting enemies!
Boogie Bomb - Throw this funky orb into the fray to unleash a momentary, disco-fueled dance party on your foes. Let the rhythm take over and turn the tide of battle in style!
Suppressed Pistol - The ideal weapon for stealthy attacks. Be quick on the draw and even quicker on the reload to make the most of this sneaky sidearm!
Cozy Campfire - Need to heal up after a frantic fight? Choose a place for this benign Trap and restore your HP for up to 25 seconds at 2 HP per second. A great opportunity to tell your friends a quick story!
Chug Jug - The ultimate lifeline in a firefight, this whopping beverage takes quite a bit to consume, but grants full Health and full Shield. Just make sure you’re not interrupted before you chug it all!
- You can drink the Chug Jug while moving. “Chug along,” as they say!
Minigun - With no magazine limit, this weapon is the perfect tool for razing buildings or going on a haphazard offensive. Fire away for too long, though, and you’ll become vulnerable with the Minigun’s prolonged cooldown period!
Crossbow - Swap bullets for arrows. Fun fact: The Crossbow was first introduced as Cupid’s Crossbow before becoming the Crossbow in Season 3!
Impulse Grenade - Launch yourself to outmaneuver incoming attacks, or end an elevated skirmish by sending enemies to the ground below towards elimination!
Are you as excited for this season as me? Let me know what you think about the update!
This game is awesome.
