When is Fortnite Reload released?

The OG Fortnite map and the new Reload mode will not replace anything. Players can interact with the new add-ons however they want, without losing any of the existing game modes.
For now, people can only speculate what the loot will contain. However, it’s not hard to guess that it will contain some OG Fortnite loot, much like Chapter 4: OG Season.
