Epic Games haven’t confirmed what has caused tonight’s outage, although it’s likely connected to the huge player-growth.

Fortnite has seen a major jump in players since the start of 2018 and is something that the development team are trying to keep up with.

Fans will be hoping that tonight’s issues are just a short-term issue and won’t cause issues for much longer.

Fortnite hit a new peak of 3.4 million concurrent players recently, which caused some major issues.

“Problems that affect service availability are our primary focus above all else right now,” an earlier message from Epic Games explains.

“We want you all to know we take these outages very seriously, conducting in-depth post-mortems on each incident to identify the root cause and decide on the best plan of action. The online team has been working diligently over the past month to keep up with the demand created by the rapid week-over-week growth of our user base.

“While we cannot promise there won’t be future outages as our services reach new peaks, we hope to live by this great quote from Futurama, “When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.”
