Players gradually reveal the huge potential of Fortnite’s Creative 2.0 mode, recreating popular franchises like Grand Theft Auto or Resident Evil in Battle Royale. However, Epic Games is not satisfied with this and believes that these creations must be stopped.
The reason is obvious: it is about copyright and the rules of Epic Games to use the Unreal Editor in Fortnite. The company does not want any player to violate its rules, so it detailed everything and stated that there are risks of permanent bans for breaking the rules.
Epic Games posted an important message on their new page focused on the Unreal Editor creator community. The company warns that it will penalize players who do not comply with the rules for creators, intellectual property guidelines and copyright in their creations.
The studio requires players not to post content based on copyrighted works or franchises. It doesn’t even allow them to create it and share it on social media as there will be penalties even if it’s not officially published in the battle royale. Those players who do not follow the guidelines simply they will not be able to be part of the program and earn money. Furthermore, Epic could also permanently ban to users who commit an infraction. Therefore, not everything is allowed in Creative mode 2.0as happened with other proposals, such as Dreams.
“Those who create infringing content on UEFN, even if they never intend to post it in Fortnite, or share infringing content on social media, will face content removal and enforcement action, including permanent account bans,” the study reported. .
Therefore, it is better for the players to forget about watching recreations of other video games, animes or movies in the Battle Royale. Epic Games’ goal is for its players to create original content that wows the entire community.
