Epic Games updates Fortnite island’s gambling rules
After a week of blowback, Epic Games has addressed a recent change that allowed Fortnite Creative builders to offer in-game purchases on their islands. Almost immediately after the feature went live, developers behind one of the most popular Creative maps for younger audiences, Steal the Brainrot, added random item bundles that cost up to 4,900 V-bucks (a 5,000 V-buck pack costs about $36). The creator of this particular Fortnite island also added a prize wheel option where spending V-bucks increased your “luck” with each spin.
