edgecast - lots of traffic at ~3:00 a.m.

Anyone else see a lot of traffic inbound from the Internet last night
(early this morning) at ~3:00 a.m. central time? I see an IP Address,
(93.184.215.240 - EdgeCast), which I think is EdgIO (fka limelight).
Any idea what this is related to? (something tells me it's a game update)

I'm seeing an uptick from Apple's AS6185, along with the usual CDNs,
all around that time. Looks like there is a new iOS update (17.3).

Same on our side + Fastly, Akamai, a little bit of Apple too. Not sure what
content exactly.

There was a Fortnite (game) release some time around 09:00 UTC this morning, so that could be it....
