How to Watch Fortnite OG Blast Off Live Event
To experience the excitement of the rocket launch live, players should join the OG lobby before the event begins. Unlike the Galactic Battle event, there won’t be additional gameplay. Expect the rocket to launch into the sky, creating a rift, just like in the original rocket launch. To ensure you don’t miss a moment, log in a few minutes early.
Fortnite OG Blast Off Live Event: What to Expect
- A thrilling rocket launch creating a rift
- New weapons and Points of Interest (POIs)
- A limited-time Red Kevin skin
The Fortnite OG live event promises a nostalgic rocket launch reminiscent of the classic from Fortnite Chapter 1. Data miners have already uncovered details about the event. Interestingly, reports suggest that the rift opening at the end will be red, hinting at some exciting upcoming changes.
Once the rift opens completely, brace yourself for some changes to the OG map before the new season kicks off next month. Rumors indicate that Epic may reintroduce some weapons to freshen up the loot pool. Although specifics are scarce, the anticipation is palpable.
Moreover, this live event is expected to advance The Visitor’s storyline, underscoring the rocket launch’s impact on the battle royale island’s narrative. Similar to how the Purple Rift offered the PURPLE Kevin skin, players can look forward to the RED Kevin skin being made available.
