Tue Mar 25 08:30:00 UTC 2025: **Fortnite’s OG Season 3 Launches Tuesday with Throwback Update**
LONDON, UK – Fortnite will experience downtime on Tuesday morning, beginning at 9 am UK time, to implement a major update launching “OG Season 3.” This update revisits Chapter 1, Season 3, offering remixed versions of classic skins, cosmetics, and weapons from the game’s early days.
The downtime is expected to last approximately three hours, with the game returning online around noon UK time. Matchmaking will be disabled several minutes before the scheduled downtime. Players attempting to log in during the maintenance period will be met with a loading screen.
The update introduces a new OG Pass featuring reworked versions of iconic skins, including updated designs for Raven, Rex, and the Astronaut. While Epic Games hasn’t clarified whether these skins will be exclusive to the pass or also available in the in-game shop, nostalgic weapons like guided missiles and the port-a-fort will also return.
OG Season 3’s theme centers around the original Season 3’s impactful meteor event at Dusty Depot, a pivotal moment in Fortnite’s storyline. The season also marked the introduction of customization options such as contrails and back blings.
