Fortnite fans are in for a treat as the highly-anticipated v28.10 update is set to bring exciting new features to the popular battle-royale game. However, players should brace themselves for some downtime as Epic Games conducts essential maintenance.

After a winter break, Fortnite players are now back in the game and eager for the first major update of the season. The v28.10 update is expected to unveil a plethora of item unvaults, new cosmetics, and potentially a return to Augments.

Epic Games has announced that the downtime for the update will begin at 9am GMT / 4am EST / 1am PST. Matchmaking will be disabled shortly beforehand, so players may experience difficulties accessing games or being unexpectedly kicked out of matches.

While Epic Games has not provided an exact duration for the downtime, it is anticipated to last until 1pm GMT / 8am EST / 5am PST. Hardcore gamers have noticed that Fortnite often comes back online earlier than the official announcement, so keep an eye out for any surprises.
