Today, on Tuesday, July 21, the Fortnite servers will be down on all platforms (PC/Mac, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, iOS, Android). During this time, the new update 13.30 will be deployed. What is included in the new patch?
What is happening today in Fortnite? The update 13.30 will be deployed on all platforms today. Fortnite Status has announced the patch on Twitter.
Update 3:10 PM: The update 13.30 is now live. We show you in the German patch notes what has changed in the game.
The update could bring new content and will likely fix some bugs in the game.
Before players can go on an exploration tour, as usual, the servers will be taken down.
Fortnite servers will be taken down – when and for how long?
Downtime starts in the morning: The downtime for update 13.30 will start today again at 10:00 AM German time. You can join a new round for the last time at 9:30 AM, 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 by around noon at the latest.
However, technical issues or other delays may extend the maintenance work. If this is the case, you will hear about it here on MeinMMO.
When will the patch notes be released? Based on previous updates of the new Chapter 2 in Fortnite, it is likely that no patch notes will be released for the Battle Royale mode.
If this is the case, MeinMMO will compile the major changes and publish them in the form of patch notes.
What new content does update 13.30 bring?
What new things will there be in the Battle Royale mode? The new update could bring a few new contents, as these have still been leaked and not yet implemented, such as:
- The cars that were seen in the trailer, but cannot be driven yet
- The dragon shotgun found in the files
Additionally, a few bugs should also be fixed. The bugs that Epic is currently working on can be seen on the Fortnite Trello.
What will the update bring for the “Save the World” mode? What update 12.30 will bring for the Save the World mode is unfortunately not yet known.
The PvE mode of Fortnite has now come out of Early Access, and Epic has decided not to offer it for free, as it was originally planned from the beginning. As the game is now “finished,” new updates will not be deployed as frequently anymore. We have summarized the most important changes for the Save the World mode.
