Your Fortnite updates might be slow due to a weak internet connection. Check your Wi-Fi or ethernet cable!

It could be the Epic Games servers are experiencing high traffic. Try updating at a different time when fewer people are online.

Sometimes antivirus or firewall settings can interfere with update speeds. Temporarily disabling them might help.

Make sure you have enough free space on your device. Sometimes a lack of space can slow down updates.
