Fortnite The device - The servers are overloaded, no login possible

Fortnite the Device starts in a few minutes. Many players have been waiting for this event for a long time and should experience the event, unfortunately there seem to be problems with Epic Games.

We have been trying to log into Fortnite for an hour, but unfortunately it doesn’t work! We only get the message: The queue is being checked.

Want to log in too many players and there is a traffic jam or does Epic Games have problems? On Twitter Epic announces that the servers are overcrowded and no one can log in anymore. At the moment you can only watch the event via livestram.
