How do I make my Epic game account full?
How do I know I need to upgrade my account to a full Epic Games account? When you first launch Fortnite on your console, you're given the option to start playing immediately or provide information to create a full Epic Games account.
This error message appears for one of the following reasons: The email you used to register your Epic Games account contained a sub-address. Note: A sub-address uses “+” or “.” characters to create more than one account on the same email address (i.e. john+123@gmail.com or j.ohn@gmail.com).
You need an Epic account to sign in to and play Fortnite on any platform. There are a variety of ways to create or link Epic accounts to various gaming platforms and services.
- Go to the Epic Games Store Free Games page.
- In the top-right, click Sign In and enter your details. If you don't have an account, it's free to create one.
- Click the game you want to add to your account.
- Click Get.
- Click Place Order.
- Click I Agree.
You may only access the Services through your own account. Users do not own their accounts, and gifting or otherwise transferring of accounts or access keys is prohibited.
However, Epic Games doesn't really delete inactive accounts. As mentioned in their Terms of Service, Epic Games reserves the right to delete or suspend accounts if the account holder(s) breaches its Terms of Service.
Locating your Epic Account ID on the web
Click on Sign-in in the top right corner. Sign into your Epic Games account. Hover over your Epic Games account name and click on Account. Your account ID is listed at the top of the Personal Details page.
The Epic Services are intended to be appropriate for general audiences and are not directed to children (usually considered to be under 13, depending on where you reside).

Epic Games will delete unverified Fortnite accounts
The deletion warning states that if players don't verify their accounts, they will be permanently deleted. Players are given 30 days to verify their accounts, which is more than enough time.

Open the Epic Games Launcher. Click your profile icon in the top right corner. Click Settings. Under the Preferences section, check the Enable Offline Mode Browsing box.

It's very rare for Epic Games to give away free skins in Fortnite, so if there's a skin that you'd like to unlock above, make sure to get it while you can. We'll keep this page updated if any new skins are made available, so be sure to check back soon.
It is a violation of the ToS at Epic Games and does come with consequences. In fact, if you find yourself banned for buying a second account, there is also a chance that it isn't the only account that gets banned.

You can sell any in-game items on Gameflip that you can transfer to the buyer's game account, except for Prohibited Items. Whether it's a cosmetic skin or a rare item, you can sell them all on Gameflip.
The month of August has seen the banning of many Fortnite accounts. Though the situation seems bewildering on the surface, it is a serious and complex matter, as the banning of so many accounts pertains to legal issues.
If you receive a message in Fortnite that an item or some V-Bucks were removed from your account, this is because a refund or payment reversal was processed on your account.
Will deleting Epic Games delete Fortnite?
Uninstalling a game from any platform does not remove the license you purchased for that game, it simply removes the files from your local computer storage. You can download it again at anytime if you want to play it later.
There is no way to merge two Epic Games accounts.
Player Support is unable to assist with requests for merging accounts. If you want to connect an Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch account to your Epic Games account, go to your Accounts Connections page to do so.
Visit your account's ACCOUNT INFO page. In the box labeled DISPLAY NAME, enter your desired new display name. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click SAVE CHANGES.
If you are attempting to log in with your Epic Games account credentials, and you are repeatedly being returned to the login page, try clearing the cache of the browser, and then enter your login information again. Alternatively, try opening this link in an Incognito window or an alternate browser to log in.
In the US, the ESRB gave Fortnite a Teen rating. This equates to those 13 years and older.
The age recommendation for Fortnite is 13 and up, but each child is different. The Entertainment Software Ratings Board rates Fortnite “T” for teen, which means ages 13 and up. Common Sense Media, an Understood founding partner, also recommends the game for kids 13 and up, because of its action violence and open chat.
Fortnite for kids: Best to wait until teen years
Learning to shoot and kill has become normalized in video games, but it's not something to take lightly. There are plenty of other games to play while your kids are still young children. But you can still learn the songs and dances together as a compromise.
You have to be at least 13 years old (or such other age, if greater, as may be required in your country of residence) to be eligible to participate. In addition, if you are between the ages of 13-17, you must have permission from your parent or legal guardian to do so.
Don't Buy or Share Accounts
Any actions committed on your account are your responsibility. Any bans received on your account as a result of sharing are your responsibility as the account owner. Buying and selling accounts is against our terms of service and will result in an account ban.
It is strictly mentioned that transferring of accounts is prohibited. "You may only access the Services through your own account. Users do not own their accounts, and gifting or otherwise transferring of accounts or access keys is prohibited."
