Fortnite will receive one last update before the major one that will declare the beginning of the next season. Before we head there, Fortnite’s v21.50 update will land on Tuesday at 4:00 AM ET (08:00 UTC). A default maintenance schedule, as there are plenty of other things to be fixed. One thing to pay attention to is the removal of the Impostors playlist, already disapproved by many fans.
As announced on the official Fortnite Status Twitter profile:
Update v21.50 is set to release on August 30th! The downtime starts at 4:00 AM ET (08:00 UTC), with matchmaking being disabled 30 minutes prior. Please note, in this update, we will be vaulting the Impostors playlists.
