The launch of Season 2 has revealed the release date of Fortnite OG's next adventure. ShiinaBR shared a post on X this morning to spread the news that the third season of OG will launch on March 25th. Today's patch notes revealed that Season 2 will end on the 25th of March, so this information is official.
Season 3 will surely offer new weapons and locations from the beloved era of Fortnite, but there'll also likely be remixed versions of Battle Pass skins from the third season. Most notably, the John Wick outfit and Take The L dance could both get new versions in the OG Pass, which is available at no additional cost to any player with an active Fortnite Crew subscription.
I'm glad they're giving enough breathing room between seasons 🙌🏽

X users, such as Surya Sudharsun, have been sharing their approval regarding the length of recent Fortnite OG seasons. The first iteration was around for about two months, and it looks like Season 2 is getting the same treatment. Hopefully, Epic Games will continue to offer a few months per season so that each OG fan can have ample time to explore their favorite version of Chapter 1.
