In Fortnite, on April 25th, the servers on all platforms
(PC/Mac, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, iOS, Android) will be taken down to roll out a new patch. When does the downtime begin? When can you jump back in? MeinMMO has all the information!
What is happening today in Fortnite? As in every week, Fortnite developer Epic will take the game offline to implement improvements and add new features. This means that you will need to take a break.
We will show you how long you need to take a break and what content we can expect today. Hold on tight, it might get explosive!
Update: The patch notes for 8.50 are now available in German.
Fortnite servers will be taken down – when and for how long?
When will the servers be down? At 10:30 AM German time, you will no longer be able to join new lobbies. This buffer time before maintenance begins ensures that you cannot be thrown out of ongoing games.
At 11:00 AM German time, Fortnite will finally be unreachable. You will need to take a forced break.
When will Fortnite be back online today? If no unforeseen problems occur, you should be able to jump back in around midday.
If there are delays, you will be informed as usual on MeinMMO. You can also read the patch notes for the new game version 8.50 with us shortly after the maintenance begins, as soon as they are available.
These contents could be coming in Fortnite 8.50!
What will the update bring for Battle Royale? In addition to urgent bug fixes for ghost sounds, traps, and the faulty weapon swap, there will most likely be a new crossover event with Marvel’s Avengers.
This has happened before, the Marvel character Thanos provided one of the most exciting modes that Fortnite has seen since then. Since Epic has now shown both Captain America’s shield, Thor’s axe as a pickaxe, and Iron Man with three teasers, the new collaboration is expected to be even more massive and bigger than the last one.
That the still extremely dominant orb will be changed so shortly before the start of Season 9 is considered unlikely. After all, the bug fixes are supposed to eliminate some of the most pressing issues.
What’s included in the new update for Save the World players: The PvE faction of Fortnite will also receive new content with game version 8.50. In addition to the new Bunny Outlander, Miss Bunny Penny is making a return.
But the highlight is undoubtedly the new difficulty levels in Twine Peaks. These are intended to present experienced players with a new challenge, as Epic revealed in a post on Reddit. The new missions come with a base power level of 128 and are supposed to bring better loot as well.
What do you think of the changes? Are you excited about the Marvel event?
