The first major content update of the year arrives today with the release of Fortnite v19.10, which will soon be available on all supported platforms.

As previously revealed by various Fortnite leakers, today's update will mark the return of Tilted Towers, a classic point of interest that first debuted all the way back in Chapter 1 Season Season 2.

Unfortunately, before players are able to drop in at the returning point of interest, the game's servers must be taken offline for some short server maintenance.

Whilst you wait for v19.10 to release, here's everything you need to know, including the full server maintenance schedule and patch notes.
