Fortnite fans have been patiently waiting for Creative 2.0 mode, and it looks like the mode is delayed again. Epic Games founder and CEO Tim Sweeney revealed this unfortunate delay on Twitter earlier this week, stating that the team is now “targeting March.”
It's rare to hear about Fortnite delays, but it's concerning to see that the mode didn't even release in March. This is hardly the first delay for Creative 2.0; the mode was originally scheduled to launch last month, but a new delay was revealed again in late January. For now, players must wait patiently.
Sorry, there will be no UEFN in January. We are now aiming for March.

Players were disappointed by the delay, but many expressed understanding. It seems that fans of the game would rather release the mod in good shape than release it when it's not ready. If Epic Games releases the mod in an incomplete state, it could cause a shake in player confidence.
The current version of Creative mode was released in 2018 and already gives players a lot of freedom, as they can create anything. Creative mode 2.0 will be getting a new release, which will give users more options and freedom. Hopefully, Epic Games will have more information to share in the coming months.
The Fortnite title is available for free on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S, Nintendo Switch and PC.
In a previous story, in two separate settlements, the FTC said Epic would pay a $1.5 million fine for violating the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act and another $1.5 million to reimburse consumers who were tricked into paying unwanted fees, the statement said.
The FTC alleged that Epic violated the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) by collecting personal information from Fortnite players under the age of 13 without notifying their parents or obtaining verifiable parental consent.
After this exorbitant fine, we hope that Epic will make extensive updates to the game's purchasing system to avoid falling into other similar situations that could cost billions of dollars.
