Epic fixes Fortnite's 'Take the Elf' emote distribution issue earlier than expected
We've deployed a fix addressing the issues encountered earlier today. Login and Game Services have been restored and the elf is back on the shelf. Players that have earned the Take The Elf Emote will now receive it as a gift or immediately after completion.

Epic originally said that those experiencing an issue with receiving the 'Take the Elf' emote would have to wait until the next year to get things sorted out. Looks like that's no longer the case. Even better, the fix applied to the game lets players grab the emote right now!
