With the latest Fortnite update dropping today, v23.20 introduced several new items, quests, and features that players have been eagerly waiting for ever since the conclusion of Winterfest 2022. This update is the first major one in 2023 and things aren't looking too good for Epic at the moment.
With the three-hour downtime period set to end soon, players are extremely excited to log back into the game and jump into some Battle Royale lobbies to try out the new items and complete quests. Unfortunately, they were immediately kicked out as they tried to log into the game.
Fortnite players are certainly no strangers to login and matchmaking issues that generally pop up after a major update or live events. Nevertheless, they have expressed their disappointment with the game's recent Chapter 4 Season 1 as it's full of bugs and glitches.

While players wait for Epic Games to fix the servers, here's a quick guide on how to deal with the Fortnite successfully logged out error that you may face if you try to log into the game right now.
Workarounds for the Fortnite successfully logged out error and the reasons behind it
Fortnite players are constantly getting kicked out of the game while trying to log in to experience the latest v23.20 update. While the servers may be back online at the moment for some, certain regions are still experiencing login issues and it's unclear as to when they'll be fixed.
All you can do now is wait and keep an eye on the official channels where you can verify the servers' current live status. First off, you can head over to the official Twitter handle of Fortnite Status, where Epic regularly tweets the status of the servers and reports any other issues that fans might be experiencing in the game.
Alternatively, you can head directly to status.epicgames.com, where you can check on the live status across all of the services that Epic Games' servers are running. Here, you can see each and every parameter of the game that's operational at the moment and what's currently undergoing maintenance.
Next to the login status in the above image, it shows a 'Partial Outage,' which means that the game is likely experiencing issues in that aspect, with players far more likely to encounter errors while logging in. Additionally, you can head to the official Trello board, where you'll be able to find a pinned tweet highlighting this downtime from the Fortnite Status Twitter handle.
To check if the login issue has been resolved or not, you can log into the game and click on the Relaunch button to restart the game multiple times until you finally get back in. Although the servers will likely come back online at any moment, you can still visit the pages mentioned above to see the live status of the game's servers and confirm when you can enjoy Chapter 4 Season 1.
