Today, on Tuesday, June 30, the Fortnite servers will go down on all platforms (PC/Mac, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, iOS, Android). During this time, the new update 13.20 will be deployed. What’s in the new patch?
What is happening today in Fortnite? The update 13.20 will be deployed today on all platforms. Fortnite Status announced the patch on Twitter.
Update 11:55 AM: The update 13.40 is now available in Fortnite. We will show you in the German patch notes what has changed in the game.
This is the first major update of Season 3 in Fortnite. So there may be new content on the Fortnite map.
Before players can go on an expedition, the servers will be taken down as usual.
Fortnite servers will be taken down – when and how long?
Downtime start in the morning: The downtime for update 13.20 is set to start at 8:00 AM German time. At 7:30 AM you can join a new round for the last time, after which the servers will be taken down and Fortnite will be down.
How long will the maintenance take? Based on experiences from the last weeks and months, the work should be completed around noon.
However, technical problems or other delays may extend the maintenance work. If this is the case, you will find out here on MeinMMO.
When will the patch notes come? Based on experiences from the last updates of the new chapter in Fortnite, it is likely that no patch notes will be released for the Battle Royale mode.
If this is the case, we will compile the most important changes and publish them in the form of patch notes.
What new content does update 13.20 bring?
What new features will there be in Battle Royale mode? In the post from Fortnite Status, there is a hint: “We are giving the game a bit more flare.” This could indicate the new shotgun that has already been leaked.
There are also some bugs that are to be fixed, such as:
- Players take fall damage when they fall from ziplines into shallow water
- Chug Splashes do not heal when thrown into bushes
- Supply drops push loot under the map
You can see all the other issues that Epic is currently working on in the Fortnite Trello.
What does the update bring for the Save the World mode? The crypts will be removed from the game again today, June 30. So with this update, there could be a new quest line.
Additionally, you should pay attention to the Fortnite map after the update, as it may be that the water is slowly receding. That would be another step closer to the new vehicles, which are still not drivable.
