Epic Games has indicated that today’s downtime will last around one hour, specifically from 6 am ET until approximately 7 am ET. For real-time updates regarding the server status, players can visit Epic Games’ official status website.

What to Expect in Fortnite’s v34.30 Hotfix

This hotfix primarily addresses features related to Reload, meaning players should not anticipate changes in other core game modes. Upon the servers’ return, players can look forward to a rotation that includes a Chapter 2-inspired map, featuring seven classic Named Locations:

  • Slurpy Swamp
  • Dirty Docks
  • Steamy Stacks
  • Fort Crumpet
  • Lockie’s Lighthouse
  • Logjam Woodworks
  • E.G.O Outposts

There has been speculation about potential vehicle inclusions, but no confirmations have been made by Epic Games, nor were vehicles showcased in the promotional trailer. However, we do have insight into some of the items and weapons that will be available in the loot pool.

Players can expect the reliable Red-Eye Assault Rifle, the hard-hitting Mammoth Pistol, and the popular Combat Shotgun, a classic choice for those who prefer an aggressive playstyle.

Prepare for the Slurp Rush update for Reload to be live once the downtime concludes. Whether teaming up with friends or playing solo, get ready to unleash some chaos on the island!
