€100 million Fortnite lawsuit claims Epic put "pressure" on minors to spend real money: "Young consumers are supposed to be protected from exactly that"
A Dutch consumer group, Stichting Massaschade & Consument, is suing Epic Games for €100 million over allegations that Fortnite's in-game store pressures minors into spending real money and collects data without consent. The lawsuit seeks refunds and damages, citing research indicating that young buyers often regret purchases made under time pressure. This follows previous fines and settlements against Epic for similar practices.
