Epic Games has warned that the update will be slightly larger than usual so this may impact the downtime. The new season’s downtime will possibly last a few hours or maybe longer. We hope it will be only an hour or two but if there are any issues it may have to be longer. The initial downtime is promised to start around 2am ET with the update available to download a few hours later.

There will then be continued downtime until the servers are back up. This usually lasts another 2 – 4 hours. You should be able to play the Chapter 5 Season 3 on May 24, 2024 anywhere between 7am to 11am ET.
