Fortnite downtime today: Season 7 will improve following v17.10 update

The v17.10 update will be released within a few hours. Earlier, the developers rolled out an Alien-themed season following the v17.00 update. And the season brought forth several new aspects to the game. However, players complained of some minor glitches and sloppy gameplay.

It was expected that Epic would be releasing the first major update within a few weeks of the release of Fortnite Season 7. And it was recently revealed that the v17.10 update would be rolled out on June 22nd.

Gamers have been wondering when the Fortnite downtime is today and when the server would be back. Fortnite v17.10 update's downtime will begin at exactly 3:30 AM ET (7:30 UTC).

The v17.00 update rolled out an entire new season for Fortnite. Therefore, gamers experienced a longer downtime. The patch size was also a bit on the larger side.

However, the v17.10 update will roll out changes to the game. Hence, loopers can expect a downtime of approximately two hours. The patch size will also not be enormous and will be downloaded easily.

As mentioned above, Fortnite downtime for v17.10 is expected to begin at 3:30 AM ET. Therefore, it is expected that Fortnite will go offline approximately 30 minutes before the downtime begins. Matchmaking will be disabled in Fortnite, and players won't have access to the game during that time.

The v17.10 update will roll out significant changes to the game. However, fans are more interested in the Cosmic Summer Event, which will take place in Believer Beach.

The Cosmic summer celebrations will begin at 9 AM ET. It is anticipated that the v17.10 update will implement several changes to the Believer Beach POI. Players are advised to head towards the location once Fortnite downtime is over following the v17.10 update.
