Are Fortnite Servers Down Or Not Responding? Here’s How To Check

If you’re trying to get into a round of Fortnite to catch some fish to complete your weekly quests, you may find that you’re currently unable to do so at the moment. Is this an issue with your internet, or did something happen in the game to take down the servers?

Let’s dive into all of the details that are currently available, and the easiest ways to find out if there is something major going on, or if it may be something happening on your end. Here are all of the best ways to find out if Fortnite Servers are down!

Why Can’t I Play Fornite? How To Check For Server Issues

If you’re on social media, one of the fastest ways to find out if you’re running into an issue with server downtime is to check out the @FortniteStatus Twitter Page. This is an official page run by Epic Games that will allow players to keep up on the most recent server issues, as well as a plethora of other issues that are currently plaguing the game.

When new updates get rolled out, the Epic Games servers usually take a hit. Normally, Server Downtime only takes a few hours and is pushed through during the early morning hours, but due to unknown errors, sometimes the servers go down unexpectedly. It seemed to come out of nowhere, booting players out right when they are about to slide 30 meters continuously on ice, and back to the menu.

There is nothing that you can do on your end to bring the game back up currently. The servers will be down until Epic Games figures out a solution. Keeping an eye on their official Twitter page, however, you’ll be able to see when the servers are back up and running at their normal volume, so make sure you give them a follow if you’re wanting to stay on top of these kinds of issues.
