At 3 AM ET, you will be able to download the new update and play the video game once the servers get back up. Here is the start time of Fortnite Chapter 4 – Season 4 for every major region:

- Japan Time: 4 PM
- Australian Eastern Time: 6 PM
- New Zealand Time: 7 PM
These start dates come from an official confirmation from Epic Games. Considering that the current season of Fortnite ends at this time, it makes sense for Epic to release a new season right then since there is no live event.
