The Fortnite v19.10 update is almost here, and this patch is shaping up to be the biggest one Chapter 3 has seen so far. This update brings back the fan-favorite Tilted Towers point of interest, which was frozen under the ice and snow that slowed the thaw throughout Chapter 1 Season 3.

Of course, we won't know everything until the update drops, but for now, here's what's new in Fortnite v19.10.

While Epic hasn't shared an exact timeline for how long Downtime will last, you can expect the game's servers to be back online a few hours after Downtime begins. This is not a patch update, so you will need to download the update file after downtime is over. The download size shouldn't be too large (Fortnite patches aren't usually too large), so you should be able to go back and get to Tilted Towers in no time.
Fortnite is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.
