We’re beginning to disable matchmaking in preparation for the v21.51 update, with server downtime beginning soon.

We’ll let you all know when downtime has ended!

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

Once servers are operational again, we’ll update the article accordingly. As for the patch v21.51, we’ll be posting it the moment it’s up and linking out to it as well. You can monitor that by checking back on our Fortnite game hub and refreshing it from time to time.
