Epic Games Is Calling Out For Halloween Themed Experiences For The Annual Fortnitemares Event

Halloween is right around the corner and Epic Games is preparing for the return of Fortnitemares with a callout to creators and asking them to produce their very best Halloween themed maps, games, and experiences which will be featured during the popular October event. Creations which are submitted prior to the October 1st, 2021 deadline will be featured in the Fortnitemares section in the Discovery tab which was added during the recent v17.50 update and Epic Games will provide some assistance to standout creations and help them refine their skills to make their experiences spooktacular.

Those looking for a little creative inspiration for their projects and see what is possible with Fortnite Creative can check out Nightfair which is a survival horror game that was produced in collaboration with Meta4 Interactive and built entirely within the Fortnite game itself. Players will navigate through a fairground filled with peril and face off against a dangerous villain who has arrived to challenge their wits and will power. Teams must work together in order to escape and escape the wrath of TPK and his maniacal minion in an asymmetrical survival experience. Think you can survive the night?

Players interested in creating a unique Halloween experience with hopes of being featured during the Fortnitemares event should pay attention to three primary goals laid out by Epic Games and also consider the following tips and guidelines which will help maps stick out in a good way:

  • Rock Solid New Player Experience – include tutorials and onboarding to ensure NEW Fortnite players can easily jump in and enjoy the experience without any prior knowledge
  • Deep And Intuitive Gameplay System(s) – economy systems that let players interact with each other in order to become more powerful
  • Exciting And Challenging Player Progression – leave players feeling rewarded for their efforts and ensure that they return to continue working towards achieving their goals

Creations can be submitted to Epic Games via the Creative Content Submission Form on the official Fortnite website under the ‘Seasonal Event’ category. All submissions MUST be original and adhere to the Fortnite Creative Featured Content guidelines and principles.
