The wait is almost over. Fortnite OG's The Unvaulting Event goes live today, Sunday, June 14, and Epic Games has locked in the start time across all platforms simultaneously. No staggered rollouts, no platform-specific delays.
When the event goes live
Here are the exact regional start times for The Unvaulting Event:
The event runs on all platforms at the same time, so PC, console, and mobile players are all on equal footing here.
What actually happens at Loot Lake
The Unvaulting Event mirrors how it played out during Chapter 1, and that nostalgia factor is a big part of why the community is paying close attention. Once the event kicks off, the vault door at Loot Lake opens up. Players head inside and cast a vote to decide which item gets pulled back into the OG loot pool for the rest of the current season.
Here's the full list of items on the ballot:
- Bounce Pads
- Drum Gun
- Grappler
- Infinity Blade
- Tactical Submachine Gun
- X-4 Stormwing Plane
The key here is that only the winning item returns. Whatever gets the most community votes comes back into rotation immediately after the event closes, while the rest stay locked away. The Infinity Blade and Drum Gun have historically been the most contentious options, so expect the vote to be lively.
Map changes and what comes next
The vote outcome does not just affect the loot pool. The Unvaulting Event also triggers map changes that will stay in place until the next OG season kicks off on June 24. The specifics of those changes will depend on the vote result, so the map players wake up to on Monday morning will look at least a little different.
That 10-day window before the next season starts gives players just enough time to experiment with whatever item wins the vote before the slate resets. If you want a full breakdown of what is coming with the next chapter, the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 launch date and start times guide has everything confirmed so far.
