UPDATE 3: With 14 million players logging in for the end of season Juice WRLD concert, chances are a few of you couldn’t jump the queue and enter the servers.
Fortunately, however, Epic Games has confirmed timings for the Encore concert, which will take place shortly before the start of Chapter 6, Season 1.
If you missed Fortnite: The Remix, then the good news is that you can check out the event at 1am GMT UK time on December 1. That’s 8pm ET for US players.
“More than 14 million concurrent players partied up for Remix: The Finale and more than 3 million estimated people streamed it online,” Epic tweets. “This is a new Fortnite all-time record for an in-game concert – thank you!
“We’re running it back at 8:00 PM ET tonight for an encore. Doors open at 7:20!”
UPDATE 2: Epic Games has recommended joining a different game mode if struggling to join the queue for Remix The Finale.
“If you’re unable to queue into Remix: The Finale, please jump into another game mode like LEGO Fortnite and exit then join in the event!” Epic tweets.
If you can’t join a game, you can also watch the event unfold live in the video stream below.
UPDATE: New reports have suggested that more than 5 million players are currently logged in to Fortnite for the Juice WRLD event.
With this in mind, you really should login now to avoid having to queue and potentially miss the initial live event.
Epic Games has also issued a volume warning to fans looking to continue playing after the event.
“Console players – at the end of Remix: The Finale, if you decide to “Keep Dreaming” there may be a slightly lower volume than the rest of the in-game concert event,” Epic tweets. “Turn up that volume dial, this is something you won’t wanna miss!”
Likewise, it’s worth pointing out that game modes like Battle Royale, Reload, and Save The World will be temporarily disabled while Remix: The Finale is live.
UPDATE: Epic has once again warned fans to login to Fortnite before the 7pm GMT event start time.
With just under two hours to go until the start of the event, nearly 4,000,000 people are currently playing Fortnite.
With this in mind, Epic recommends logging in by 6.20 at the latest. (And perhaps even earlier.)
“Remix: The Finale starts soon! Now’s the time to jump in to make sure you get into the queue. Doors open at 1:20 PM ET. Who’s ready??” reads an Epic tweet.
ORIGINAL: Fortnite developer Epic Games is bringing the current season to an end with a big in-game concert.
Featuring the likes of Snoop Dogg and Juice WRLD, the Fortnite end of season event takes place at 7pm GMT UK time on the evening of November 30.
While this all seems pretty straightforward, Epic Games has issued a couple of warnings to fans thinking of joining Fortnite Remix: The Finale.
For starters, fans are strongly encouraged to login at least 40 minutes before the start of the event, and maybe even longer.

Recent events have been extremely popular, which has led to long waiting times and server issues.
The warning was issued by Epic Games on X, formerly Twitter: “Remix: The Finale is coming soon! Doors open at 1:20 PM ET on November 30, and the show kicks off at 2:00 PM ET. Log in early to avoid the queue.”
On the plus side, Epic plans to run an encore or two, which means you can potentially check out the concert before the start of Chapter 6, Season 1.
Elsewhere, Epic Games has a separate warning for content creators and Twitch streamers looking to monetise the event.
According to Epic, content creators in the Support-A-Creator (SAC) program will be able to monetise the event for seven days.
Epic explains more: “In order to monetise your Chapter 2 Remix content, you need to link your YouTube and Support-A-Creator accounts.
“When uploading the content to YouTube, be sure to upload it as Unlisted or Public. If you upload the video as Private, it’s possible you could receive a monetisation claim on your video.
“For uploading the content on other platforms, refer to the channel’s platform policies for tips on how to avoid copyright strikes.”
Finally, Epic reminds fans to login soon to receive the free Juice WRLD skin and items.
Anybody who logs in from now until December 1 at 3am GMT will receive a selection of free Juice WRLD rewards from the item shop
This includes the Slayer Juice WRLD Outfit, the 999 Knives Pickaxe, the 999 Knives Back Bling, and the Adventure, Remix’d Loading Screen.
That’s on top of the Number One Remix Loading Screen, the Remix With the Golden Touch Loading Screen and the Juice’s WRLD Loading Screen, featuring art by Takashi Murakami.
According to Epic Games, anybody who misses out on the items will be able to purchase them from the Item Shop at a later date, but you’ll have to pay for it.
