For a while, we have been speculating and patiently waiting for the return of the original Fortnite map, rewinding all the way back to the first season. While some of us were hoping Epic Games would destroy the map and recreate the OG map as part of the main season, we might get it back in a previously unexpected way. The players will have to take it into their own hands by using the features that Epic Games has provided: Creative 2.0.
Is the OG Fortnite map back?
Though you probably won't ever see the OG Fortnite back in the main game, Epic Games has given players all the tools and features they need to recreate it themselves using the new Unreal Editor. Players will be able to make some of the best creative games yet with full controls for cell-shading, animations, and more. This means even the minuscule details will all be under the players' control, allowing for super realistic environments or perhaps even rolling back the graphics to recreate that Season 1 feel.
You can join Creative Maps through the Discover tab in-game or on Fortnite's website. Find an experience you'd like through the Discover menu or use the map codes to quickly jump into the action and explore player-made locations and game modes.

This is one of the biggest remakes of the OG map by the professional team atlascreative.
