What is making Fortnite players perceive varying ping in the Middle East area? Ping variation may occur when game traffic is redirected to other server locations, e.g. to India rather than the conventional hubs of the Middle East. This can be done to load balance or resolve outages, or to temporarily boost performance. It is unconfirmed by Epic Games officially but can only be interpreted as a backend change and not a complete server change.
