The Fortnite V13.40 update is one of the most-awaited ones in Fortnite history because it will finally add cars into the game. For months, vehicles have been teased and delayed, much to the disappointment of fans, who have been demanding the same for a while!
Cars were expected to be a vital feature of the previous V13.30 update, but got delayed yet again, and continued to get postponed over the next few days.
But now, automobiles are finally set to be featured in Fortnite's Joyride update, which will be out today, and the downtime for the same should begin at 4 AM ET (8 AM UTC/1:30 PM IST).
Matchmaking will likely be disabled 20 to 25 minutes ahead of the update. Epic has teased that this could be a potentially loaded patch, so there may be at least an hour of downtime before the servers return.
