What is happening today in Fortnite? Epic Games is taking down the servers of Chapter 4 Season 5 to upload a new update. According to leakers, new content from the OG universe is expected to appear with this update.

Fortnite: Server Down – When and how long are they offline?
This is the downtime in the morning: According to Epic Games, the servers will likely be taken down at 10:00 AM German time. Matchmaking will already be disabled 30 minutes earlier, so you won’t be able to search for new rounds from 9:30 AM.
When can you play again? This is a larger update. It is therefore likely that Epic Games could bring the servers back online at 11:00 AM or even at 1:00 PM. However, this is not confirmed.
When are the patch notes coming? Epic Games usually releases a short list of patch notes on their site after the update. If this happens, we will summarize them here briefly and clearly.
What content could appear with update 27.10?
Epic Games reveals hardly any new information about upcoming content before a new update. However, trustworthy leakers like Shiina have been keeping an eye on the data that are hidden from the regular users and know approximately what you can expect this time. You can expect the following things:
- New OG cosmetics
- Hidden battle pass items
- Things from season 7 and 8
- Maybe the December crew pack
- New collaborations?
- Added shop tabs
- Maybe data about the upcoming 5th chapter
- And more!
This time it is more like a larger maintenance, which could likely also bring some OG skins into the shop.
