Fortnite Creative 2.0: Chapter 1 maps, copyright risks, and special permissions.
TL;DR
Epic Games has allowed creators to remake the original maps of Fortnite's Chapter 1 using the new Creative 2.0 tool, despite it contravening the game's end user license agreement. The exception only applies to Chapter 1 maps and they will remain ineligible for monetization. The Unreal Editor allows developers to create and publish maps and games directly into Fortnite, and even earn a slice of the game’s revenues for their trouble.
