FORTNITE 20.10 UPDATE: RELEASE DATE, PATCH NOTES, LEAKS AND MORE
April 4, 2022
Reminder: The Fortnite 20.10 update will be released tomorrow.
Fortnite Update 20.10 looks to be the next major update dropping for Chapter 3 Season 2 and given that the update could reinstate building, we’d argue it’s a pretty big one. That said, the first update of a new season always is, with the devs usually looking to make any changes, tweaks or desperate fixes that could be causing issues for players since the new season kicked off. Here’s everything you need to know about Fortnite Update 20.10 ahead of its eventual release.

Release Date And Time
At the time of writing Fortnite Update 20.10 doesn’t have a confirmed release date, but we are widely expecting it to drop next week on April 5. That’s because dataminers like iFireMonkey (below) have noted that the 20.10 update has already been recently pushed to the games staging servers. We would imagine that Epic Games Fortnite Status Twitter account will confirm the release of the 20.10 Patch at some stage on April 4.
In terms of a release time, we anticipate it’ll be the same as all Fortnite updates, with server downtime starting at 01:00 PST / 04:00 EST / 09:00 BST / 10:00 CET. Usually, this also requires that matchmaking is disabled around 30 minutes beforehand with the update taking up to two hours to roll our. So all players should see the update available by 03:00 PST / 06:00 EST / 11:00 BST / 12:00 CET at the latest.
