No more Fortnite V-Bucks.
Epic Games joined the chorus of western companies boycotting Russia this month. On Twitter the company announced that it will cease commerce in Russia due to the invasion of Ukraine, noting that services will still be available inside the country. So users will presumably be able to play Fortnite in Russia, just not buy that cool new skin or top up their V-Bucks.
Epic is stopping commerce with Russia in our games in response to its invasion of Ukraine. We’re not blocking access for the same reason other communication tools remain online: the free world should keep all lines of dialogue open.

MMO Fallout will update when the Fortnite community in Russia burns the country down in response.
