Are you wondering why Fornite is currently undergoing maintenance? Well, look no further because we’ve got you covered in this guide that explains the game’s downtime and what you can expect in the future. We’ll also provide details about how long these segments last and when you can play the latest update.
Why Is Fortnite Undergoing Maintenance?
As of right now, Fortnite is undergoing maintenance because the developers are setting up for the release of Chapter 4 Season 3 and this requires taking the servers down to update them with the latest patch. This information was shared via the official Fortnite Status Twitter account, which noted that downtime was beginning in the tweet we’ve included below.
The server downtime started at 2 a.m. Eastern Time, and is expected to last for at least a few hours, which means that servers should be back up at around 5 a.m. Eastern Time, on June 9. This is an estimate, however, and we’ll keep updating this post once we’ve got further information.

The upcoming Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 is set to include an exciting new crossover skin featuring Optimus Prime from Transformer’s fame. The big word to sum up this season is ‘WILDS’ apparently, with players being able to explore ancient ruins that have lurked underneath the island’s surface all this time. Raptors can be ridden, and vines can be grinded for quick and easy traversal, too!
