Fortnite will be down for its v4.2 update

Fortnite is going offline in the early morning of Wednesday, May 16 as Epic does maintenance to prepare for its next update. The developer announced that the planned outage will begin at 4 a.m. Eastern time (1 a.m. Pacific). This update comes just as Epic finished the Infinity Gauntlet mode that brought Thanos, the villain from Avengers: Infinity War, into the game.

Epic Games has not released the patch notes for version 4.2 of its games. It will publish that changelog once it goes live. This is the second big update since the battle royale shooter hit Season Four on May 1. The studio is on a one-update-per-week schedule, which helps keep it fresh with its massive player base.
