Fortnite servers go offline – When will they be back online?

When does the server maintenance in Fortnite start? At 09:30 AM CET, you will no longer be able to join an active game. At 10 AM CET, the servers will then be completely shut down. Fortnite will no longer be accessible.

When will the Fortnite servers be back online? The exact times vary. Usually, Fortnite is back online around noon. However, this depends on whether the problems from yesterday don’t recur and the maintenance runs smoothly.

As soon as the servers are back online, you will be informed as usual on MeinMMO. We will also provide you with the patch notes as soon as Epic publishes them.

What’s in the update for Fortnite: Battle Royale: The update to the new game version 7.4 will bring some great new features that players are looking forward to. In addition, there will be an event tailored to Valentine’s Day.
