To check the Fortnite server status, you’re going to need to make your way over to the official status page on Epic Games website. Here you can see a complete breakdown of any issues currently plaguing Fortnite, Battle Breakers, Epic Online Services, and the Epic Games Store. This is a good way to check whether the problems you’re experience connecting to the game are something you can troubleshoot – like an internet issue – or something that Epic will need to resolve.
