Fortnite Players Are Convinced the Chapter 1 Island Is Returning Soon
Every year since 2020 there have been rumors flying that Epic Games will bring back the Chapter 1 map and it seems this year is no different. As Fortnitemares is underway and anew seasonis on the horizon, the rumor mill is working overtime. But could it be true this time? Players seems to think so, pointing to a sky-related teaser on a billboard in Mega City as proof.
An in-game screenshot taken by X/Twitter user@notkraehas sparked debate online about the supposed reappearance of the first ever Fortnite Chapter map. The image appears to show a bright blue sky with puffs of white clouds flashing up on the side of a building in Mega City.
Many other players have noticed this is identical to the sky in Fortnite’s first season. Is this possibly a hint to us seeing the return of that OG season map? User@HappyPowercertainly seems to thinks so, treating the billboard as a teaser for the upcoming season and asking “Bro are we really going back?” The consensus is a positive one, with many fans joining in on the nostalgic wishful thinking, harking back to simpler times.
YouTuber D3NNIpointed out the iconic moment in Avengers: End Game, set in the year 2023, when we saw Thor and his friends apparently playing the first season of Fortnite. Could this have also been a hint at the old season returning this year? Only time will tell, of course.
Speaking of time, a time machine can currently be found in the vault at Eclipsed Estate, and it shows the release date of Fortnite Battle Royale: 2025-06-08. Yet another teasing hint at the possible return of the OG map! I, for one, cannot wait to see what the new season brings us, whether it is the Chapter 1 map or something completely different. All this excitement shows exactly why Fortnite continues to be one of themost popular online multiplayersof all time!
