The new season, called "Fortnite OG," focuses heavily on bringing back that classic Chapter 1 map. Several fan-favorite locations like Tilted Towers, Wailing Woods, and Risky Reels seem to be making their return to the battle royale game. On top of the map, Epic Games promises players will be able to "relive the memories. And create new ones" with the return of OG weapons like the Pump Shotgun.

Juice WRLD's melancholic track fits perfectly with the theme of nostalgia. "Lucid Dreams," released in 2018 just months after Fortnite first launched, transports players back to the early days of the cultural phenomenon. The lyrics about memories and dreams complement the goal of making new memories on an iconic old map.
Will There Be A Juice WRLD X Fortnite Concert?
While Epic Games has not officially announced a Juice WRLD collab, the song choice has led to rampant speculation among leakers and fans. The hype for the return of Chapter 1 POIs has been building for weeks, so the OG map reveal didn't come as a total shock. But the potential Juice WRLD collab excites fans who see it as an opportunity to merge Fortnite's past with Juice's legacy.
Some players are hoping for a full-scale Juice WRLD concert similar to previous musical collaborations like Travis Scott. But so far leaks only point to the song's appearance in the trailer rather than a larger in-game event. With Chapter 4 Season 5 launching on November 3, 2023, fans don't have long to wait and see whether Fortnite and Juice come together.
