The latest Fortnite update is now live across both last-gen and current-gen gaming platforms. Though Epic Games has not yet released the official patch notes, we’ve gathered some key information to help you understand what’s new and what’s being addressed.
This is what Fortnite Status revealed earlier today:
We are aware that some players are not being granted "Stage 1 – Earn XP in Creator Made Experiences" in Spooky Show Off Fortnitemares Quests.
We are investigating the issue and will provide an update when we have one.
