Fortnite OG Butterfly Event: How to Enter
Blog Andrew Joseph 08 Nov , 2025 0

fortnite OG is hosting its latest live event this weekend, with a reenactment of the Chapter 1 Butterfly event expected to take place on Saturday, November 8th. Fortnite OG has always been a fan of these types of live events, with some crazy stuff happening on the map during regular matches, and it certainly won't be the last we see as the permanent OG mode begins to play out in the final few seasons of Chapter 1.
This is Fortnite's second major live event in a week, as presented at an event held last Saturday The Simpsons Invasion Main Battle Royale Mode. Here's how to participate in the Fortnite OG Butterfly event.
When and where will the Fortnite OG Butterfly event take place?
The butterfly event will take place on Saturday, November 8th at 11am PT/2pm ET during the Fortnite OG match. You need to arrive a few minutes early and head to the big cube next to Loot Lake in the center of the island. Epic recently added safe zones to live events, so you probably don't have to worry about players giving you pain during this time – but keep your eyes peeled in case you have to protect yourself.
What to expect from the Fortnite OG Butterfly event
The original version of the event was more complex than Fortnite's previous live events, as so far they were just events that didn't directly involve players. The Butterfly event, on the other hand, will allow players to get up close and personal with the cosmic butterfly for which the event is named. We won't describe it further for the sake of those who don't want a detailed synopsis ahead of time, but those who want to know exactly what to expect, or want to refresh their memory, can watch an older version of the event below.
The new version of the activity may not be exactly the same as the old version. Every time Epic brings back an old live event in Fortnite OG, it adds some new details, and this one might be the same. This could be a small difference, like the butterfly being red instead of purple, or a larger difference. If you're wondering if The Simpsons' Fortnite acquisition will extend to Fortnite OG – it's not impossible, but it's highly unlikely.
Fortnite OG Season 6 has reached its midpoint and is scheduled to end on December 11, with OG Season 7 expected to begin the next day.
