Alright, let’s talk about cheating in Fortnite—because nobody likes a cheater, right? Epic Games is cracking down harder than ever on rulebreakers, and I’m here to break it all down for you in a fun (but serious) way.

Cheaters Beware: Epic Is Taking Legal Action

Look, if you’re thinking about cheating, don’t. Epic isn’t playing around. They’ve been busy handing out bans and legal consequences to people who:

Steal and resell Fortnite accounts (Yep, they’re getting sued.)

Cheat in tournaments (One got sued, another settled—ouch.)

Sell or use cheating hardware like Cronus devices (These got removed from sale, and if you use them, expect a ban.)

At minimum, cheating gets you banned. But it could also mean losing tournament winnings and facing legal repercussions. So yeah, it’s not worth it.

New PC Requirements for Competitive Play

To keep tournaments fair, Epic is tightening security for PC players in FNCS and other high-level competitions. If your account level is 350 or higher, you’ll need to turn on TPM (Trusted Platform Module) and Secure Boot—two security features that make it harder for cheats to sneak in.

Here’s the short version:

TPM: Think of it like a security guard checking your PC’s integrity.

Secure Boot: Keeps sneaky malware from hijacking your system before it even loads.

If you’re a serious competitor, make sure these are enabled—otherwise, you won’t be able to play in official events.

A Second Chance for Some… But Not All

Everyone makes mistakes, and Epic believes in second chances (for most people). Starting in April, first-time cheaters will get a one-year matchmaking ban instead of a lifetime ban. But if they cheat again? Lifetime ban, no questions asked.

Here’s how it works:

First-time cheating offense: 1-year matchmaking ban (you can still log in and chat, but no playing).

Caught cheating in a tournament? 1-year matchmaking ban + permanent tournament ban + potential loss of winnings.

Selling cheats or breaking major rules? No second chances—lifetime ban stays.

Also, if you were already permanently banned over a year ago, that ban will be lifted under the new policy.

Epic’s Anti-Cheat Arsenal

Cheating isn’t just a one-time fix—it’s a constant battle. Epic is always evolving their anti-cheat methods, including:

Blocking game-breaking exploits before they spread.

Making Fortnite’s code harder to analyze so cheat developers struggle.

Using Easy Anti-Cheat’s kernel driver for deeper protection.

Running statistical analysis & machine learning to catch suspicious behavior.

And remember: Bans are based on actual evidence, not just suspicion. If you cheat, you will be caught—no exceptions.

Final Word: Play Fair, Have Fun

At the end of the day, Fortnite is about skill, strategy, and having a blast. Cheating ruins the experience for everyone, and Epic is making sure it has real consequences. So if you love the game, play fair, compete hard, and keep it clean.

Cheaters, consider this your final warning.

Big changes are coming to Fortnite Crew, and it’s all about leveling up your subscription! Starting December 1, 2024, Fortnite Crew is getting an upgrade, and here’s why you should be excited:

🎶 Music Pass and 🧱 LEGO® Pass will now be included in your subscription for free—no extra cost! And it doesn’t stop there. Any new passes Fortnite rolls out in the future will automatically be added to your Crew subscription. Yep, that includes the highly anticipated Fortnite OG Pass, celebrating Chapter 1 - Season 1 nostalgia, dropping December 6! (Stay tuned for more details!)

What’s changing for new subscribers?

Starting December 1 at 5 AM GMT/UTC, things are tightening up. If you're a new subscriber, premium Battle Pass rewards will only be claimable as long as your Fortnite Crew subscription is active. Cancel your Crew subscription, and you'll keep access to premium rewards until the end of your billing cycle—but not for the rest of the pass’s duration.

What about current subscribers?

If you’re already part of Fortnite Crew—or join before December 1, 2024—nothing changes. You’ll keep claiming premium rewards as usual. However, if you cancel after this date and decide to rejoin later, you’ll be treated as a new subscriber. That means you’ll need an active subscription to snag those premium rewards.

TL;DR: Fortnite Crew is evolving to give you more passes, more perks, and more value—don’t miss out!
