Gamers are flagging up a significant disruption for Fortnite, with a sudden surge in complaints about server issues.
Around 9am, Downdetector recorded approximately 200 reports which appear to be spread evenly across the country. There are 40% of people saying they have an issue with their server, while 36% report a matchmaking problem and a further 24% are having difficulties with logging on.
And the current issue appears to be global as 1,457 people in the United States have also reported an issue at the same time. One person wrote: “Is servers down rn cause I cant login,” and another replied: “Yeah same bro, but I refreshed and it worked,” and a further comment read: “Must be because I can’t either.”
Downdetector is the independent outage monitor site that often has the best drop on Fortnite server news, as well as community-based reports on what’s going on with the game.
The site offers real-time coverage on problems for Fortnite, helping you identify if the server is down, why you can’t log in.
The site will also pull any comment from the developer about potential schedules for the game going back online, or what is being done to tackle the issue.
