Here’s HindustanTimes.com sums up a detailed guide on how you can check Fortnite’s server status to determine if the problem is on Epic Games’ end.
If you’re having trouble staying in a game or are repeatedly getting disconnected, the servers could be to blame. Servers can go down for various reasons, such as high traffic, game bugs, or issues with your WiFi connection.
To check if the problem lies with Epic Games’ servers, follow these steps:
Epic Games server status page: The most reliable source for checking Fortnite’s server status is Epic Games’ server status page. Just hit {https://status.epicgames.com/} on your preferred browser, and on this page, you can click to see a comprehensive list of all game aspects along with their current status. If everything is functioning correctly, you will see “Operational” in green next to each service, including game services, the Item Shop, and matchmaking.
LEGO Fortnite and other modes: This page also allows you to check the status of LEGO Fortnite and other standalone game modes.
Third-party sites: If Epic’s status page indicates everything is “Operational” but you are still experiencing issues, you can check third-party sites like Down Detector. These platforms can provide information on specific server issues in your area that Epic might not have addressed yet.

You can also follow an X (formerly Twitter) handle, Fortnite Status, to check if developers have planned any maintenance.
How to fix Fortnite server issues
If the server problems are due to a game bug or an issue on Epic’s side, you will need to wait for the developers to resolve the problem. However, if the issue seems to be on your end, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
Play during off-peak hours: Playing Fortnite during less busy times can reduce server issues, freezing, stutter and lag, as the servers will be less crowded.
Check your WiFi connection: Ensure your WiFi connection is stable. If your PC’s connection seems slow, consider switching to a wired ethernet connection.
Close other BG programs: Shut down any unnecessary programs or games running on your PC, as they may be consuming resources needed for Fortnite.
Restart Fortnite and your PC to be on the safe side: If all else fails, try closing Fortnite, restarting your PC, and then launching Fortnite again to see if the issue is resolved.
