Previously, the servers were offline for almost three and a half hours when Fortnite released patch v21.40 to begin the eagerly anticipated Dragon Ball crossover. It was a significant update that added a tonne of new content to the game.
This patch is also a significant one, adding a lot of new features and resolving some critical flaws. Consequently, Epic Games will probably take around the same length of time.
