MOVIE NEWS – Epic Games would be studying the possibility of making a Fortnite movie. The company wants to create an entertainment division and plans to produce audiovisual content.

Fortnite stopped being a battle royale a long time ago. Free to play has changed the history of Epic Games practically completely and that of video games as a service. We face a genuine social phenomenon that has remained strong over the years and has all kinds of events and collaborations, some completely unlikely.

For this reason, machinery continues to advance, and today we know that it could go one step further. As The Information has learned, Epic would consider creating an entertainment division that would lead them to produce audiovisual content. More specifically, the source speaks that, among those plans, a future Fortnite movie would be found.

If it becomes a reality, it would be a strong push that would meet the objective of expanding its brands into new markets. In addition, video game movies have returned to the big screen with force, and even very recently, we met the cast of the Super Mario movie, which Nintendo plans to release on Christmas 2022.

Meanwhile, Epic continues to grapple with the fallout from its conflict with Apple, which has brought both companies to court for all these months. Litigation originated by Fortnite, which may not return to the Apple ecosystem for another five years.
