Fortnite Season 7: How to get OG graphics back into the game?

While the updated graphics are trashy, the Fortnite community is utterly in love with the old Chapter 1 graphics. Many players even dream of waking up to a reality where the graphics are reverted to Chapter 1.

While Epic is not going to bring back the old Fortnite Chapter 1 graphics anytime soon, opportunely for players, there is a way to do this. To achieve this, players need to navigate to their Fortnite video settings and follow the steps below:

After copying all the above settings, players need to save these settings and then open the control panel for Nvidia (or any other graphics card) on their PC. Make the changes mentioned below:

  • Select the option of "Choose Nvidia settings" if on Nvidia cards or else choose the card which you own.
  • Brightness: 65%
  • Contrast: 40%
  • Gamma: Unchanged
  • Digital Vibrance: 85% ( you can choose between 80-90%)
