Alas, all good things must come to an end.<\/p>\n<p>Kicking off in early November, Epic Games has treated fans new and old to a history lesson of some of the most iconic moments to take place in Fortnite since its 2017 launch.<\/p>\n<p>This has seen an unprecedented number of players jumping in \u2013 over 44 million in one single day. And thankfully, there\u2019s still time to experience the latest update for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>The final days of the original map are nearing, and speculation has already begun as to what\u2019s next \u2013 including a possible LEGO collaboration.<\/p>\n<p>With that in in mind, here\u2019s everything you need to know about when Fortnite Season OG\u00a0 is scheduled to finish, as well as what we

A supposed leak skin of Omni-Man (voiced by JK Simmons) has been making the rounds on X, formerly Twitter. See below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">In-Game look at &#8220;Omni-Man&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FortniteOG?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FortniteOG<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bmkQom4vWh\">pic.twitter.com\/bmkQom4vWh<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Shiina (@ShiinaBR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ShiinaBR\/status\/1725079295582785750?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 16, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"\/>\n<p>From this, there\u2019s a good chance that both Invincible himself and Atom Eve will appear in Fortnite, too. It\u2019s worth noting that nothing has been officially announced by Epic at the time of writing, though.<\/p>\n<p>Next to this, another rumoured collaboration (via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HYPEX\/status\/1725551358281965727?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HYPEX<\/a>) will see Fortnite team up with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/technology-deals\/best-lego-deals\/\">LEGO<\/a>,<\/p>\n<p>This will see players getting the chance to play as a LEGO character within Fortnite, along with the inclusion of various LEGO items, such as a LEGO Stud Gun, bed, fences, catapults, ziplines, workbenches and more.<\/p>\n<p>A supposed launch date of 7th December has been shared, which may last over the holiday period.
