How to download the Fortnite update today

There's no special way to download the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 update and the only way to do it is through the Epic Games Store launcher. There are no third-party websites that allow you to download the update either. If there are any third-party sites that claim to do so, then they're malicious in nature.

As for downloading the update, it should happen automatically as soon as the developers bring the servers live. In case you've disabled automatic updates, you will have to head into the Epic Games Launcher and then click on the Fortnite icon to launch the update manually.

Once the update is complete, you can hop into the game and then enjoy everything that Chapter 4 Season 4 brings to the table. The same process holds true for PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo devices as well.
