Fortnite players are having issues signing in regardless of which mode they’re trying to play; it’s not just you. It seems a ton of people worldwide cannot access the Fortnite servers this Febuary 7, 2025.
This server outage for the game comes hot on the heels of the PlayStation Network being down today
Players Reporting Fortnite Servers Are Down This Feb. 7, 2025
Update (2/8/25 at 1:10 am ET): PSN is still down, and Sony’s latest acknowledgement is the official Ask PlayStation Twitter/X account stating, “We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN” and linking to the network’s status page, which mentions, “some services are experiencing issues.”
We’ll provide another update once more info is shared.
Players have reported the outage on Downdetector, and the number keeps on rising. Based on our observations, this seems to be tied to the PSN issue. So far, Epic Games has not said anything about the server outage, but we hope that changes soon.
Over on Reddit, players are also reporting it’s down as well, with some getting disconnected mid-match. This comes at a rough time, as players just received the big OG Chapter 1 Season 2 patch last week.
Upon checking PSN, if you try to verify your game license, you’ll be greeted with a maintenance message, though that’s not available anywhere else, which is kind of odd.
We’ll update the article once more information about the server issues becomes available, so stay tuned here on MP1st.
