Fortnite Waiting in queue errors have been hitting players tonight, affecting Battle Royale fans trying to join games.
The issues were first spotted around an hour ago, with developers Epic Games confirming issues with the game servers tonight.
“Why can’t I log into Fortnite? We’ll let you know soon, the team is investigating now,” the Fortnite Twitter account confirmed.
“For the time being we have enabled a waiting room as we work through the issue.”
Players are reporting that the Waiting in queue message has been enabled for the past hour, with no update on when the problems might be over.
One fan confirmed: “Servers down for me and when I tried to reset my password (could be me who forgotten which I used…) it said “Sorry, you are visiting our service too frequent, please try again later.” Anyone else having this issue?”
MFL…
Another added: “Mine says “Matchmaking service error” does somebody knows why?”
