Fortnite is going offline after the conclusion of Chapter 4 Season 3 but when will servers come back online for Season 4: Last Resort?
A new season of Fortnite is always exciting. It’s the time when the game feels most fresh, with tons of new mechanics, new cosmetics, and weapons to try out.
But as Epic Games prepares to drop the new heist-themed season, it’s taking Fortnite servers down for a few hours, beginning at 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET / 8 AM BST on August 25.
Here’s what we know about when Fortnite will be back online for Chapter 4 Season 4:
What Time Do Fortnite Servers Come Back Online After Downtime?
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 servers came back online at 5 AM PT / 8 AM ET / 1 PM BST on August 25, 2023!
That means there’s around until Last Resort is playable for everyone!
Maintenance usually lasts between 2-5 hours when a new season goes live:
- Chapter 4 Season 2 downtime concluded at 4:30 AM PT / 7:30 AM ET / 12:30 PM BST.
- Chapter 4 Season 3 downtime concluded at 4:00 AM PT / 7:00 AM ET / 12:00 PM BST.
There’s always a chance that maintenance will conclude slightly earlier than expected. The moment the servers go live, we’ll update this article.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 Start Time
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 should kick off at approximately 4 AM PT / 7 AM ET / 12 PM BST on August 25, 2023.
At that point, players are free to drop into the new heist-themed season, as Fortnite gears up for its ultimate safe-cracking, laser tripwire-avoiding adventure.
And fitting with that theme… Khaby Lame will be making his debut as part of the Chapter 4 Season 4 ‘Last Resort’ Battle Pass.

Yeah, we’re not sure how the TikTok star fits in either, unless he’s taken up bank robbing in his latest videos.
