Preloading Fortnite’s Chapter 4 Season 2 Update, Explained

No, you cannot preload Fortnite updates such as Chapter 4 Season 2. While other live service-style games such as Genshin Impact allow you to preload content updates ahead of time, it’s not the same case with Fortnite. After the servers go down for maintenance, which typically lasts for a few hours, the update usually rolls out shortly afterward. This should give you enough time to get the update done ahead of time, as long as you’ve got a relatively speedy internet connection.

As for when the servers are likely to undergo maintenance for the update, the downtime will begin on March 2nd at 2 am ET/11 pm PT/7 am UK time. You can read more about Fortnite server downtime in our detailed guide here.
