Fortnite servers are currently down, which means that the numerous fans of the famous battle royale game will have to find other alternatives or simply wait. The decision is part of the developers’ way of making room for the v23.30 update to land.
In other words, you won’t have to wait too long to hop back into Fortnite again if you’re a fan. The update in question lands today, January 31, which means that Fortnite servers are only a few hours away from coming back into action.
Prepare to power up in v23.30!

For the update in question, Epic Games is preparing to add even more Dragon Ball-related content in Fortnite. This time, Gohan and Piccolo will jump on the bandwagon, the stars of the latest Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie that came out last year.
Both Gohan and Piccolo are very important Dragon Ball characters. While Gohan is the son of Goku and also the one who saved the world several times, Piccolo is considered the creator of the dragon balls. Furthermore, Piccolo was also the first trainer of Gohan back in the old days of Dragon Ball Z when Goku’s son was only a 5-year-old child.
Therefore, the addition of Gohan and Piccolo as new skins in Fortnite can’t possibly surprise anyone.
Epic Games wrote in a press release:
In the v23.30 update, Son Gohan and Piccolo from the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie make their Fortnite debut, the Kamehameha attack item, and the Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) mobility item are out of the vault, and Dragon Ball Adventure Island is back,
Throughout each match in Battle Royale/Zero Build, the Kamehameha and Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) items will fall from the sky in capsules.
Those willing to play Fortnite can do so through a variety of platforms, such as PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Android, iOS, macOS, Windows PC, etc.
