Fortnite Update 2.66 (v.12.30.1) is Now Here, Along with Skye's Adventure Part 2 Challenges Leaked! Here's What to Expect

Epic Games has recently posted an announcement on Fortnite's official Twitter account for status updates, saying that server downtime will be happening as they roll out the latest update for the game: patch 2.66, v.12.30.1.

Now, the servers are back up again--but what can we expect with the latest update?

Maintenance Update for Fortnite

According to Fortnite Insider, it's only a maintenance update, meaning Epic Games only fixed several issues with the game and rolled out some enhancements for a better gaming experience as well.

That means we won't be seeing any new weapons, characters, or any significant changes to the game for now.

Nevertheless, it's expected that Fortnite Chapter 2, season 2 will end at the end of the month, so fans are waiting to see some major updates for the next few weeks or so.

No Big Changes

For this maintenance update, Epic Games did not offer a full list of fixes, although they tend to update fans and players through their Trello board, which is open for the public to view and comment on to report bugs.

However, here's what Fortnite players can expect that have been fixed with the latest maintenance update:

• Fixed issues with crashing when changing styles for cosmetics in the Locker.
• Fixed issues with controllers that may not vibrate when the player takes damage.
• Codeaxe Pickaxe has been re-enabled.
• Low-quality PS4 map textures are enhanced.
• Stability fixes to improve Fortnite

The Fortnite maintenance update comes after update 2.65 (v.12.30) with a size of 2.6GB, which was released last week and brought some changes to the game, including a Door Gallery Update and interacting with Button Devices.
