Reliable leaker HYPEX is one of many to jump aboard the theory train, indicating the beloved Chapter 1 map is returning. According to the source, a current time machine inFortnite Chapter 4 Season 4will malfunction and send players back to the OG Chapter 1 map with a similar loot pool.
The changes will occur for a month, cycling through the different Chapter 1 seasons before Fortnite launches into Chapter 5.
“A reliable source claimed a day before S4 that Chapter 1 returns in S5 due to the time machine breaking, and that we’ll cycle through ch1 seasons for a month with constant map changes and OG weapons / loot pool, until the blackhole, and then we go into Chapter 5. And today we see Ch1S5 teasers.. 👀 Also heard similar things & hints from multiple sources with @FBRsections & @ShiinaBR”
