Many Fortnite players are currently experiencing login issues and are not able to play the game. Some lucky players are fortunate enough to get in, so just be patient!
There are many players trying to get on the game, so servers could be overloaded. Epic Games is working on sorting this issue.
We are investigating an issue with our account service that may be affecting login and social features. More information will follow as needed.

There have been many issues with the Fortnite servers lately and a lot of downtime. We think this could be due to the surge in players over the past couple of weeks, which Epic had not expected.
It’s best for players to not wait in queue until @FortniteGame have tweeted that the issues has been solved. This is because you will most likely not be able to login and so you will be wasting time.
Epic are looking to launch a new game mode called “Shooting Test #1” tomorrow on Fortnite. To read more about it click here.
UPDATE:
We are still experiencing issues with account services. We are actively working on it and hope to have you back and playing soon!
