The level cap for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 has been removed. This information was shared by several notable community members, such as @HYPEX and @Loolo_WRLD, after players could be seen reaching level 1,014 and beyond on the leaderboard. Since the previous cap was 1,001, this is a clear indication that Epic Games has changed the upper limit.
Here is everything we know about the situation.
Why might the level cap for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 have been removed?

To elaborate, on December 6, 2024, Fortnite OG Chapter 1 Season 1 was launched. However, players who reached Seaonal Level 1,000 were unable to claim rewards from the OG Battle Pass.

This is because level 1,001 was the upper limit. Without being able to level up further, players who had purchased the OG Battle Pass were dead in the water.

Perhaps to fix this issue and allow players to claim rewards, Epic Games lifted this upper limit. As such, players are now free to grind XP as much as they want to reach the highest possible seasonal level or at least to level up enough to claim all rewards from the OG Battle Pas and LEGO Fortnite Odyssey Chill and Thrill Pass.
What could the new level cap for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 be?
With the level cap reportedly being removed, it is safe to assume that there is no upper limit. Players may very well be able to reach level 2,000 and beyond.
A player by the name of ManyshkaCSE currently holds the record for the highest level, which is 1,014. The individual was also responsible for bringing to light the issue of in-game progression for the OG Battle Pass being capped at level 1,000. As such, this is a relief for them and a few others who are currently at level 1,000.
