Why is Fortnite not working on Xbox Cloud Gaming?

Multiple Xbox Cloud Gaming users are reporting that Fortnite is not working on their systems, and the game is having an error, causing login failures and crashing the platform. 

Fortnite has already acknowledged the outage on its X (formerly Twitter) page, and the developer is working hard to fix the problem so that everyone can log in easily and play the current Star Wars season. But if the problem is on your end, there are a few ways to troubleshoot it.

How to fix Fortnite not working on Xbox Cloud Gaming

Here are some easy ways to fix Fortnite not working on Xbox Cloud Gaming to help you get back in the Star Wars season: 

Check your internet connection

Cloud Gaming relies heavily on your internet speed, and if you have a jittery internet connection, your login will not go through. So, restart your router and Wi-Fi to ensure that you have a smooth internet connection to play the game and run the Cloud Gaming on your system. 

Clear reserved space

Many players have reported that they’ve solved the problem by clearing their reserved space or cache on Xbox. You can also do that by going to My Games & Apps, selecting Fortnite, and then going over the Manage Game option. After that, find the Saved Data, and delete the reserved space here, and restart the service to run the game. 

Platform-specific solution

If your problem is not related to Fortnite and your cloud service is down, you might want to visit Xbox’s official cloud gaming troubleshooting website to find your solution based on the platform.

If none of the solutions work in your case, then we need to keep your eyes peeled on the Fortnite Status X handle and sit tight, where the developer provides an update once they’ve fixed the issue for the players.
