Fortnite servers down? Fortnite players furious as login chaos disrupts long-awaited Simpsons collaboratio
Fortnite is down as fans were left frustrated on Wednesday, November 26, as the popular online game faced significant disruptions, preventing thousands of players from accessing the title. Users across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch reported login failures, matchmaking errors, and connection breakdowns, bringing gameplay to a halt just days before a major seasonal update.
The official Fortnite Status account on X confirmed the issues, stating: “We’re aware of players being unable to login to Fortnite. Our team is investigating the issue and we’ll follow up once the issue has been resolved.”
The disruptions come as Fortnite prepares for Chapter 7 of the Fortnite x Simpsons collaboration, which sees the fictional town of Springfield dropped into the game earlier this month. Players can explore dozens of locations from the long-running series and enjoy Simpsons shorts, accessible both within Fortnite and on Disney+.
The event features unique Simpsons skins, available through the Fortnite Simpsons battle pass or for direct purchase in the in-game shop. The battle pass costs 1,000 V-Bucks, with players unlocking tiers and skins by earning XP in matches. Some of the popular skins include:
- Marge Simpson
- Witch Marge
- Blinky Fishstick
- Hazardous Blinky Fishstick
- Ned Flanders
- Stupid Sexy Flanders
- Homer Simpson
- Evil Homer
- Springfield Peely
