We’re currently working on a resolution and will keep you updated.

Further details on Epic Games’ status page said it had identified an issue with logins and as of 01:53 UTC was still working on a fix. While the game, login and store are experiencing major outages, Fortnite’s website, forums and messaging services are still operational.

Fortnite’s issues come half a day after Instagram was briefly offline.

Netflix is still up, if you need something to pass the time.
