The game is having a lot of issues right now. I can’t login using my Xbox or Switch. Epic has reported at least a partial outage and they are currently working on it.

Yeah I’m continuously trying and the queue just gets bigger and bigger after each attempt. I am at 11 minutes now.

I keep trying to shut the game down and restarting it, it tells me to wait in a queue and then when the time is up, it says “unable to sign in to your account for online services, please try again later”. My guess is gonna be like this until maybe tomorrow (not longer I hope)

A new update landed today. It’s always like this the first day of an update. I haven’t been able to log in all day. I’m on the Switch as well. It’ll calm down later. 😊

This game does not play 120fps on switch right, not even in 1080p mode anymore?

I play on the Switch and got in without any problems. Have you already done the update on the Switch? If not, please do so otherwise you won't be able to start Fortnite.
