Fortnite accidental swastika will be removed soon, says Epic

Fornite accidental swastika that can be made using the game’s builder will be removed soon, developer Epic Games has confirmed.

The accidental swastika was discovered by several Reddit users who stumbled onto the symbol by arranging the game’s wood, stone and metal structures in a specific way. The symbol is easily recreated using metal structures specifically, it was discovered.

One such example of an accidental swastika can be seen above.

Thankfully, the issue will be resolved soon.

“This was unintended and will be addressed ASAP by adjusting the metal piece art,” a representative from Epic told The Verge.

Fornite and its popular Fortnite Battle Royale mode are available on Windows PC, Xbox One, PS4, Switch and iOS.
