Hot on the heels of an in-game appearance with Ice Spice and Snoop Dogg, Fortnite developer Epic Games has announced release plans for Chapter 2 Remix.

Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix releases November 2nd for PS5, PlayStation 4, Xbox consoles, PC, Android and Nintendo Switch.

Of course, as with the start of each new season, fans will only be able to start playing after a period of server downtime.

Fortnite developers announced the start of server downtime on X (formerly Twitter), explaining when the game will go offline and matchmaking will be disabled.

“It’s time to hit the rewind button! reads a tweet from Epic Games. “Downtime for v32.00 begins at 2 a.m. ET, with matchmaking ending shortly before.”

For UK fans, matchmaking will be disabled at around 5:30am GMT, then the game will go completely offline at 6:00am GMT.

Epic hasn't officially confirmed when the game will be back online, but the start of a new season usually results in extended server downtime.

This means Fortnite will likely remain offline until at least 10am GMT and possibly until 11am GMT.

In a follow-up tweet, Epic confirmed that the Chapter 2 Remix download will be larger than usual.

“Be careful, game update v32.00 will be a larger download compared to previous updates,” an Epic tweet said.

What fans can expect is that Remix will reintroduce the map from Chapter 2, just with a twist or two.

The shortened season will introduce new map points of interest, gameplay elements and characters every week.

As of November 2nd, the agency's premises will now be called The Doggpound, described as the new home base for Snoop's company. Players can also earn Snoop's Drum Gun Mythic, unlock the LBC '93 Dogg Outfit by picking up the Music Pass, and purchase the Snoop Dogg Outfit in the Shop.

Eminem will take center stage in Week 2, followed by Ice Spice in Week 3 and Juice WRLD in the final week.

The Battle Pass contains around 70 different items, including the new Kicks cosmetic (shoes) starting November 12th.
