It seems unlikely that someone would spend $75 per alt account just to spam maps that earn almost nothing.
I’m starting to wonder if there’s a coordinated effort or strategic reason behind limiting the visibility of other experiences, by blocking them from hitting discover with these.
These were all released just today alone... all on different accounts. Every single one showed up in discover @FNCreate
I may be a bit bias, but I think if Item Shop Prop Hunt got a solid chance, players would love the features.
- Sidekick Alerts
- Custom NPCs
- Collectable Sticker Book
- Paint Launcher Tag System
- Randomly Placed Props
I am still finding ways to pack this full of fun things to do.
Item Shop Prop Hunt now has a Sidekick Detection system!
Hunters will now receive alerts from their SIDEKICKS when Props are nearby!
Extremely excited that something like this is now possible, this is going to make the immersion and experience so much more enjoyable!

I want to add to this, I could potentially see Epic denying it for being "Item Shop" Prop Hunt.
However, I went with something I felt would stay within the guidelines, while utilizing an amazing theme that sticks with Fortnite.
How else are we as creators expected to compete in a tab that looks like this.
FN Shop Prop Hunt has now been denied for Epic Picks twice, this time in just 19 minutes, with the reason listed as “Other maps were selected instead.”
It’s frustrating because FN Shop includes some of the most innovative features ever implemented in a Prop Hunt on Fortnite:
- A Sidekick Detection System using Fortnite’s newest cosmetic type.
-Decoy Prop NPCs to create dynamic, reactive gameplay.
- And the only E-Rated Prop Hunt, using a paint tagging system instead of eliminations so players of all ages can enjoy it safely.
Between implementing Scene Graph and the new Sidekicks, I genuinely believed this would finally be enough innovation to stand out.
I’d love to understand what I’m missing here, @FNCreate, how can a map with this much creative effort and technical innovation be rejected in under 20 minutes?
Prop Hunt is one of the most loved variety game modes in Fortnite. So why wouldn’t Epic want to highlight a Prop Hunt that actually evolves the formula, introducing multiple new features and breaking the mold of what players expect?
Is Item Shop Prop Hunt the first "pay to win" creative map?

I might have cooked...
About to test this in a matchmaking lobby and if everything works, it is time to publish...
When my Wife and I work together, she works in Live Edit while I work on things inside UEFN.
Since the new update, stuff she is placing is disappearing in Live Edit. However I can still see the items she has placed and when I push changes she can see them again too.
It just seems to be anything during the current Live Edit that she has touched that disappears.
Anyone else having these issues?
It is a shame that creators have to resort to unpublishing maps due to bugs that come with updates, resulting is a loss of revenue.
Please @FNCreate, let us test our products on update builds before they go live. I would sign another NDA to be able to prepare for builds proactively.
Due to major issues caused by the latest Fortnite update (v38.00), we had to unpublish our map Steal the Brainrot. We are waiting for Epic Games to fix these issues as soon as possible, and we’ll publish the map again once everything is resolved.

Looks like AWS might be part of the issue with this downtime.
There seems to be an increase in reports for AWS recently too.
Just got signed out of UEFN while actively working.
I have not seen this happen unless I had two session up before.
