Update: There's still no exact time for when servers will be back online, but Epic has provided a slightly more in-depth explanation of what the problem is. "During our downtime to upgrade to 2.3, we were performing recommended tasks to resolve a lingering database issue," a post on Epic's forum states. "Those tasks ended up causing the database to go into a bad state. After significant consideration, we decided our best option was to restore from a backup at the moment we took the servers down for the patch. Our first restore failed (due to issues *unrelated* with the quality of the backup) and we're working on a second attempt at the restore. Our Top People are on it and it will be up as soon as humanly possible."

TL; DR: Servers down for a few more hours but unknown time.
