Fortnite continues to get richer and richer as time goes on. While the last season gave us some lawless thrills, this time it is all about Star Wars. The Fortnite v35.00 update brings lightsabers, multiple bases, and even Star Wars vehicles to the game. Fortnite servers are expected to undergo maintenance very soon. So if you’re wondering if Fortnite is down and when it will be back up, it’s time to find out.
Fortnite V35.00 Downtime Schedule
The Fortnite Status X account has officially confirmed that downtime for Chapter 6 Season 3 will begin at 2 AM ET/ 11 PM PT on May 2, with matchmaking ending shortly beforehand. So, if you soon start to see the ‘Fortnite Servers not responding’ text in the game, it’s normal.
However, you can check when the servers are back online. The best way to know about the Fortnite server status is by checking the official Epic Games status website. On this site, you will notice any ongoing issues related to the game and other Epic services. As of now, the Fortnite v35.00 update hasn’t begun, so all is good. However, expect to see the status change in about 30 minutes.
According to previous updates and Epic Games schedule, this maintenance could take 4 to 5 hours. This is also when the Fortnite servers will come back online.
