Fortnite disables 'Ready Up' button after Chapter 6 Season 1 launch

Fortnite's "Ready Up" button has disappeared following the launch of Chapter 6 Season 1. This button, which allows players to quickly enter a new match, was disabled to investigate an issue, according to the official Fortnite Status account. Players must now return to the lobby to start a new game, adding an extra step to the process. Epic Games has not provided a timeline for when the button will be restored but confirmed it will return in a future update. Despite this inconvenience, the new season has generated excitement, especially after a record-breaking virtual concert featuring Juice WRLD, which attracted over 14 million concurrent players.
