However, when attempting to view the update details on Epic Games’ website, fans were left staring at a blank white screen, simply reading ‘internal server error.

It means the notes will be out after schedule, but shouldn’t prevent the update itself going live.

Perhaps for the first time, players will have to jump back in to Fortnite blind, and discover all the changes first hand, in-game.

Given the size of the update though, there is planned downtime period for the game, which could last up to four hours.

Hopefully Epic Games can solve their website issues before the downtime is over.
