Fortnite players experienced a brief disruption on Tuesday as Epic Games took servers offline for update 34.20, a key installment in Chapter 6 Season 2. The downtime, which started at 1am PDT (8am GMT), lasted approximately one hour and 38 minutes, with matchmaking restored by 2.38am PDT (9.38am GMT), according to Fortnite’s official status account.
The latest patch introduces a variety of fresh content, setting the stage for Fortnite OG Season 3.

The patch officially went live globally on March 25 following a pre-downtime matchmaking pause. Players can now jump back in to experience the latest additions and prepare for what’s next in Fortnite’s ever-evolving universe.
