Fortnite Matchmaking Server Issues Going On Right Now, Epic Confirms

Wildly popular game Fortnite is suffering from server issues once again. In this case, matchmaking has been impacted, which could prevent you from joining a match on mobile, PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Epic has taken some measures to address the problems, which include disabling a newly added playlist for the time being and matchmaking in general.

The status page on Epic's website shows that matchmaking is suffering from a "major outage." The page adds that matchmaking has been disabled as the studio works to resolve the problem, though there's no ETA for how long this will last. This move came shortly after the studio took two other steps to deal with the situation: It's turned off the Squads version of the High Explosives v2 playlist and instituted a cooldown in between attempts to join the matchmaking queue.

These issues come on the same day that Epic rolled out the 3.4 content update for Fortnite. This did not require a download but did add new content--namely, the Vending Machine--and make weapon balance changes. Meanwhile, the PS4 version received a new update to resolve a crash, although that patch was mistakenly much larger than intended.

High Explosives v2 is the latest limited-time mode to be added to Battle Royale. As the name suggests, it plays out like the earlier version of High Explosives, as players are restricted to explosive weapons only. This iteration includes some of the more recently added weapons, including Remote Explosives and the Guided Missile.
