Epic Games often schedules maintenance early in the morning, so expect servers to be back up around 8-10 AM Eastern Time.
Servers are probably up already. Check the Fortnite Status Twitter or the in-game notifications for the exact time.
Maintenance usually doesn't last long! They often aim to have servers back up by late morning or early afternoon Eastern Time.
Pretty much, servers come back up within hours. Just grab a snack, they'll be back soon!
