Today Epic Gamesannounced that they’re going to be permanently extending theFortniteSupport-A-Creator programavailable within the popular third-person shooter made famous by it’s Battle Royale mode.
For those unaware, Support-A-Creator was announced earlier this year in October and allows players to support their chosen creator by spending the in-game currency, V-Bucks. Once spent their chosen creator earns money from that purchase. Players are able to do this by jumping intoFortnite’s Save the Worldmode orBattle Royalemode, selecting “Support a Creator” and then type in the creators Epic Tag in the dialogue box.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve earned the V-Bucks for free or spent real-world money for them, the Creators still get a share of the purchase made. You’ll also be able to change your chosen Creator at any time, and will allow you to support a chosen creator for 14-days, after that period you can choose another, or reselect your favorite.
