Fortnite Down

If you’re seeing Fortnite down reports surface today, it’s not just you, but everyone is seeing this, as Epic Games has triggered maintenance this August 31, and this is also for patch v21.50’s deployment. 

Fortnite Down Server Status and Update for August 30:

Here’s the announcement per Epic Games:

Update v21.50 is set to release on August 30th! Downtime starts at 4:00 AM ET (08:00 UTC), with matchmaking being disabled 30 minutes prior.

Please note, in this update we will be vaulting the Impostors playlists.

Same as in past maintenance schedules for the game, we’re expecting this to last for at least two hours, with Epic Games announcing once the servers are back up. 

Once servers are operational again, we’ll update the article accordingly. As for the patch itself, we’ll be posting it the moment it’s up, and you can monitor that by checking back on our Fortnite game hub and refreshing it from time to time.
