Set out to become a Champion with the upcoming Bugha’s Late Game mode. 🏆 Fortnite v17.20 is slotted for release on July 20. In preparation for the update, services will be disabled starting at approx. 02:30 AM ET (06:30 UTC). Please note this is an earlier time than usual. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/E6rmeWZXoAISe4h.jpg

This is the update that introduces the previously-announced Preferred Item Slots setting. Also: Arena playlists will be disabled starting July 19 at 10:00 PM ET (July 20 at 02:00 UTC). We plan to have them available again after downtime has ended, but there may be a delay. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/E6rmp_bXoAUbOCM.jpg

For this update, Career statistics may stop updating shortly before downtime begins, but they should be accurate once downtime ends. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/E6rqAMcXEAMUHe4.jpg
