Fortnite fans are getting ready for the release of update 24.10 on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Android and PC. The first major update of the latest season, v24.10 will add new gameplay features and make countless bug fixes. Unfortunately, however, it will also be accompanied by a period of server downtime, which means no Fortnite for at least a couple of hours. If you want to know when you can start logging back into Fortnite, check out the 24.10 downtime schedule below.
Fortnite update 24.10 will be available to download from 9am BST UK time on the morning of March 29.
Matchmaking will begin to be disabled at 8.30am, while servers will be taken offline in full at 9am BST.
The news was announced by Epic Games on Twitter, alongside a preview of what fans can expect from the new update.
“What do you call an egg who has visited all of the POI’s? An eggs-plorer,” reads an Epic tweet.
“Get ready to Spring into v24.10 with downtime beginning at 4 AM ET and matchmaking disabled shortly beforehand.”
If it’s anything like previous periods of server downtime, then Fortnite is likely to come back online at around 11am BST.
Express Online will keep this article updated with all the latest developments, including confirmation on when the game is back online.
Based on the tweet, Epic Games will use the update to launch the Easter event in Battle Royale.
This will likely include an egg launcher weapon, some kind of egg hunt, Easter challenges, and bonus cosmetics.
According to insiders like Shiina, fans can also expect new augments, cosmetics and the release of some kind of smart pistol weapon.
With the month coming to an end, Fortnite Crew subscribers will get a look at the April cosmetic pack.
