What Gamers Should Track Next
Watch for rotation schedules showing when Lisa, Krusty, and Scratchy hit the Item Shop. Epic Games typically stagger releases across 7–10 day cycles. Mark your calendar for future dropship dates so you don’t miss your favorite characters.
V-Buck prices may increase when new battle pass seasons launch. The Simpsons crossover typically remains available for 2–3 months, meaning you’ve got runway to grind and save currency before these cosmetics rotate out. Start grinding challenges now.
Limited-Time Events Coming Soon
Expect special quests tied to Simpsons storyline progression. Fortnite often releases free cosmetics for completing event objectives. Spring challenges reward free skins, weapon wraps, and V-Buck compensation.
Will Fortnite Servers Stay Stable This Season?
The v38.10 update deployed without major crashes or extended outages. Epic Games communicated downtime windows 24 hours in advance via social media. Previous seasons showed similar patterns—quick maintenance followed by smooth server performance after launch.
Player count typically spikes 50%–75% during major crossover events. This means longer match wait times and occasional lag during peak hours. Log in during off-peak times (2:00 AM – 8:00 AM your local time) for faster queue speeds and smoother gameplay.
