Fortnite Reload is certainly the most exciting mid-season addition in the game. This mode brought back many iconic OG places and weapons but with a different twist. Initially, the mode only had a Squads playlist, but Epic Games added Fortnite Reload Duos with the latest update. Unfortunately, while the mode was added on Thursday, it’s still not available in the game.

If you can’t find the Fortnite Reload Duos mode, then our article explains everything you need to know. Keep in mind, however, that you are not the only player dealing with this problem.

Where to find the Duos mode in Fortnite Reload?

Fortnite Reload has been the game’s most popular mode over the past few days, attracting millions of players. Due to this, it’s no surprise that Epic decided to add a Duos mode for it. However, the mode is currently not enabled, which is why no one can play it yet. To find the Duos mode for Fortnite Reload, you will first have to wait for Epic to release it to live servers.

Despite the latest Fortnite update coming at 4 AM Eastern Time, the new mode hasn’t been enabled yet. According to the game developer, it will launch on Thursday at 9 AM Eastern Time.

For now, there is nothing you can do to play the Fortnite Reload Duos mode. You can sit back and relax while Epic Games prepares everything for its launch. Considering that it’s just a few hours away, the wait isn’t that long. Once the mode comes out, you will be able to play in 40-player Fortnite lobbies with only a single partner!

The support for Fortnite Reload Trios was also added with today’s update. However, the mode hasn’t been enabled yet.

Epic had announced another OG mode coming at some point in 2024, which was likely a reference to Fortnite Reload. However, we also expect a Chapter 2 throwback season at the end of the year. According to the leaked roadmap, several Chapter 2 seasons will return in November, and Epic will release another big live event to conclude the chapter.
