- Fortnite OG will return on December 11 with chapter 1 of season 7
- Retro Battle Royale mode will bring back the powerful Infinity Blade
- The update will also include new map changes and a new loot pool
Epic Games has confirmed that the powerful Infinity Blade will return in Fortnite O.G. this week.
Players will once again be able to engage in Fortnite OG, a nostalgic mode based on the game’s original Battle Royale, when he makes his return in Chapter 1 of Season 7 on December 11.
In a new social media post, Epic announced the upcoming update by giving a preview of what to expect, including map updates including Polar Peak, Happy Hamlet, and Frosty Flights, a new Christmas-themed OG Battle Pass, new gliders, and loot pool items.
What players are most excited about, however, is the confirmation that the Infinity Blade will arrive “later in the season”, after seven years. It is a mythic weapon that appears once per match and gives its wielder special bonuses to movement and health.

It is a controversial weapon, mainly due to its stats (via Fortnite Wiki) which grant 200 health and 200 shields for a total of 400 health, as well as its ability to grant 1 effective health per second and 50 effective health after eliminating an opponent.
It also greatly increases the player’s movement speed and has a large attack radius that deals 75 damage per hit. Overall, this is a pretty powerful weapon that will definitely help you win a Victory Royale.
Epic hasn’t revealed whether it has nerfed the Infinity Blade for the upcoming season, but if not, players will be able to wreak havoc once again.
Waiting for, Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1: Pacific Break is officially launched. You can consult our Fortnite Chapter 7 guide for upcoming updates and what to expect from the current Chapter 7 season, including map changes, new skins and much more.
