(2021) Competitive Playlist Issues

This thread was added on April 03, 2021, with posts from TheStevieT.

Original Post

We're aware an investigating two separate issues with competitive playlists.

  • Players cannot see Arena playlists in the playlist select menu.
    • Workaround: Select your server region and queue into another game mode and leave the match to have Arena playlists available again.
  • When queuing into competitive playlists (Arena or tournaments), the queue will cancel automatically.

We'll provide an update to the thread when we have one.

EDIT: We've just released a maintenance patch on PC to address these issues. Stay tuned to FortniteStatus for when the patch will be available on all other platforms.

Another workaround is switching your region in your settings to one that is not your own, applying the change, and then switching back to your own region.

After the latest maintenance patch on PC, players may still experience the first issue of not being able to see the Arena playlist. The workarounds provided still work.
