Fortnite Crashes Instantly on Series X (Since Dec 2024) – Nothing Fixes It

Hello, my name is Tadeu, I am an Independent Consultant and a member of the Microsoft Xbox community, just like you.

I apologize for the issue you are experiencing.

I am here to help.

I hope everything is going well and thank you for contacting me.

I'm sorry you're having this issue with Fortnite on your Xbox Series X.

Since you've already tried several methods to fix the problem, the problem isn't with your Xbox, it's a problem with the game itself.

In this case, I recommend you wait for a new update for the game to be released so this problem can be fixed.

Please note that this is a public forum only. I will respond as soon as possible, and I apologize in advance for any delay in responding. I'm just a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others. I'm not a Microsoft employee.

Best regards, Tadeu

Having the same problem now since the update last night

Reinstalled Fortnite on my Series X for the “OG” update. Game crashes to dashboard all the time.

Some instances whilst loading the game, other crashes whilst in the menus and within the first few minutes of a match. Unplayable.

Any fixes?

Hi!

I have the same bug since December in my Xbox Series X, specifically in Fortnite chat.

I try eeeeeverything and nothing works....I'm really desperate 😭😭😭

It's only certain games. The games that crash are "The Finals", "Fortnite", "Rainbow 6 Siege", "Path of Exile" to name a few. Other games such as "Balatro" and "Warframe" do not crash. I have even bought a small fan to place on top of the Series X to help with airflow but the crashes still happen.

I have the same issue. Since Fortnite Season two release the Xbox Series X fan is loud. Not in other games. It seems to be a Fortnite issue. I hope this will not damage my console??
