Fortnite Status, the Twitter account that shares service updates for the game, has revealed that servers were closed at 9am and that matchmaking services have been disabled. The Twitter account also shared that they will inform players once downtime has ended.
Downtime for the game usually lasts around four hours so users can expect to get back into the game. Players can expect that Fortnite will be back online by around 1pm, however, due to being a minor update, the game could potentially be back online before 11am, so it’s worth checking the Fortnite Status Twitter account, which will give gamers the most accurate information.
