'''Fortnite OG''' is a PvP (Player versus Player) mode in [[Fortnite]] that was released on December 6, 2024. Using the same rules and conditions from [[Fortnite: Battle Royale]], players must drop onto an island and fight to be the last one surviving in [[Solo]], [[Duos]], or [[Squads]]. In this mode, [[Building]] is enabled, and it supports up to 100 players in a match. A '''Zero Build''' version of this mode coexists with the exact same conditions as [[Fortnite: Zero Build]].

== Gameplay ==

{{Style Header|Starting a Match}}
[[File:Battle Bus - Vehicle - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170px]]
Upon loading into a '''Fortnite OG''' match, players will spawn on the [[Spawn Island]], a place where they can wait until the [[Battle Bus]] is ready to fly over the island. Upon entering the Battle Bus, players will have 15 seconds to jump out and skydive to wherever they want on the island. Players start out with 100 health and 0 shield.

{{Style Header|The Storm}}
[[File:The Storm (Epic) - Gameplay - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170px]]
After a minute, the Eye of the Storm, a safe zone, will be marked on the Minimap. Players have roughly 3 minutes until [[The Storm]] starts closing in. After the storm reaches the eye, another grace period begins and the eye of the storm shrinks. This process is repeated until the match ends. Any player in the storm will be damaged, with the amount of damage growing every few storm phases until it hits 10 DPS (Damage per Second). The storm directly damages your health, ignoring shields. Prolonged presence in the storm causes [[Storm Sickness]], which will deal more damage to a player's health, preventing long-term exposure to The Storm. There are 12 storm phases in a match.

{{Style Header|Elimination and Down But Not Out}}
[[File:Looper Elimination - Gameplay - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170px]]
Eliminating opposing players is achieved by dealing enough damage until their health reaches zero. In Solo, the player is instantly eliminated and removed from the match. In matches with more than one player on a team, such as Duo, Trio, and Squad matches, players will be knocked down after losing all their health, and can crawl on the floor at a reduced speed. Knocked players cannot use items and, if not revived, their Tenacity will deplete, until they are fully eliminated and drop a Reboot Card. Reboot Cards expire after 4 minutes and 30 seconds, and can be collected to reboot fallen allies at Reboot Vans. If all players on a team are eliminated, then that team is fully eliminated from the match. Unless revived or [[Rebooting|Rebooted]] , Players eliminated during the match cannot respawn and will have their loot dropped for other players to obtain if they wish.

{{Style Header|Items and Weapons}}
[[File:Assault Rifle - Weapon - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170x170px]]
After landing, players must find loot either on the floor or through [[containers]] to obtain weapons, healing items, materials and utility items of various [[Rarity|rarities]]. Shield can be obtained from [[Healing Items|consumables]]. Weapons are used to deal damage to players and come in different types. There are 5 types of rarities of items ({{Common}} - {{Legendary}}).

{{Style Spacer}}
{{Style Header|Building}}
[[File:Wood - Material - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170px]]
In '''Fortnite OG''', [[building]] is normally enabled. The [[Pickaxe (Weapon)|pickaxe]] can be used to gather materials that can be used to build structures such as walls, floors, stairs, and roofs. These structures can be edited before and after being placed to include a door, window, railing, etc. Enemy-built structures cannot be edited, so the attacking player must shoot through the structures to attack the enemy. Each player can hold up to 999 of each material, which are Wood, Brick, and Metal. Wood builds are the weakest, but are quick to build and easy to scavenge while Metal is the strongest but takes the longest time to fully build.

In OG Zero Build, Build Mode only remains enabled to allow the player to place traps around the Island and materials can still be harvested and acquired from [[Containers|Chests]] as they are used for currency to buy items from [[Vending Machine|Vending Machines]].
{{Style Spacer}}
{{Style Header|Victory Royale}}
[[File:Victory Royale Old - Fortnite.png|right|frameless|170x170px]]
Once the last team or player remains, they will receive a [[Victory Royale]].

==Updates==
{{Style Header|Seasons}}
In about a monthly basis, a major update is released in Fortnite OG, which re-runs the initial Chapter 1 Seasons. Each Season brings the exact content that said season brought in the original Chapter 1. This includes Map Changes, weapons, items, quality of life updates and more. Fortnite OG is currently in [[OG Chapter 1: Season 4]], with more Chapter 1 Seasons coming in the future.

==Trivia == 
*The codename for Fortnite OG is "Figment", which may imply that this gamemode takes place in a character's imagination.
*Fortnite OG has been theorized to become a permanent mode since Early 2024 because of [[Chapter 4: Season OG]]'s significant success in November 2023.
*The mode features many items that have not been seen since [[Season 1|Chapter 1: Season 1]], such as the [[Wall Dynamo (Battle Royale)|Wall Dynamo]], [[Ceiling Zapper (Battle Royale)|Ceiling Zapper]], [[Directional Jump Pad]], and the [[Submachine Gun (Pre-Season)|Submachine Gun]]. 
**Despite building being primarily disabled in ''OG Zero Build'', the Wall Dynamo, Ceiling Zapper and Directional Jump Pad can be acquired and placed on buildings.
*After criticism in [[Chapter 4: Season OG|Season OG]], this game mode features the original weapon models from Chapter 1.
*As of [[OG Chapter 1: Season 4]], Fortnite OG features the classic [[Pump Shotgun#Strategy|Double Pump]] exploit, which was fully patched out in [[Season 5]].
*This is the first time [[Moisty Mire]] and [[Anarchy Acres]] have been featured on the [[Athena]] island in 2300+ days.

*Despite most weapons using their icons from Chapter 1, the low tier and high tier [[Assault Rifle]], [[Scoped Assault Rifle]], [[Tactical Shotgun]], [[Semi-Auto Pistol]], {{Epic}}/{{Legendary}} [[Rocket Launcher]], {{Epic}}/{{Legendary}} [[Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle]] and [[Hunting Rifle]] all used their updated icons with the launch of Fortnite OG.
**The high tier [[Assault Rifle]], [[Scoped Assault Rifle]], {{Epic}}/{{Legendary}} [[Rocket Launcher]] and {{Epic}}/{{Legendary}} [[Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle]] were fixed with the launch of [[OG Chapter 1: Season 2]].
**The [[Tactical Shotgun]]'s icon was fixed with the launch of [[OG Chapter 1: Season 3]].
**The low tier [[Assault Rifle]], [[Semi-Auto Pistol]], and inventory icon for the [[Hand Cannon]] were fixed in a mid-season update during [[OG Chapter 1: Season 4]].
**As of [[OG Chapter 1: Season 4]] only the icons of the high tier [[Burst Assault Rifle]] and [[Hunting Rifle]] need to be corrected.

*Fortnite OG features the pre-[[Chapter 4: Season 1|Chapter 4]] damage indicators.
**As such, when entering a match of Fortnite OG, settings for the Chapter 4 damage indicators appropriately do not show up in the [[Game Settings|UI Settings]] menu.
