What Does Waiting in Queue Mean in Fortnite?
Once Fortnite players open up the game application on the platform of choice, they might be able to just get right into the game without having to wait, but for others, they might run into a screen that says, “Waiting in Queue for (time).”
If Fortnite fans want to make sure they can get some game time in for today, they should keep the game open and wait for the time to elapse. If players are getting hit with an absurd wait time, they should try restarting the game to see if that changes anything. However, this issue should not last long, as Epic Games has already spoken up on the problem via social media.

Earlier this morning, the official FortniteStatus Twitter account posted a message stating that the team was investigating an issue preventing players from logging into the servers. And while that issue has been mostly fixed, the development team tweeted out a few hours after the first post that they’re “continuing to work on server issues that are causing players to experience a long queue time” and that they’ll put out another update once it has been resolved.
Today, there have also been issues related to Fortnite players being unable to party up with friends online.
When Will the Fortnite Queue End?
There’s no telling exactly when the queues will end for all players, but since this is the first day of the brand-new Fortnite season, the game is currently congested with players. Once the excitement dies down a bit during this coming week, Epic Games will most likely have a handle on things, and players can log in normally without waiting in a virtual line.
Fortnite is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
