Fortnite Update 4.06 Patch Notes | Fortnite Update v27.10 Patch Notes:
Update: Epic has not released anything except the addition of an age ratings system tor islands.
Starting today, every experience (“island”) published in Fortnite will display its own age and content rating. This is to help parents and players make informed play decisions about the thousands of games and other experiences in Fortnite! Check out these examples below:
Note: the rating you see in this image is for illustrative purposes, and may not reflect the rating authority applicable to your region.

RATINGS AND COSMETICS
While there are thousands of Fortnite cosmetics available for all experiences, a small portion are not compatible with E or E10+ (or regionally equivalent) game ratings. In these cases, players will notice a new icon in their Locker and in the Item Shop indicating which Outfits and accessories cannot be equipped inside islands below a certain ratings threshold.
If a player equips one of these items and joins an island below the designated rating threshold, their equipped item will appear as an item that’s compatible with the island’s rating. (For example, their Outfit will appear as a default Outfit.)
FOR PARENTS AND GUARDIANS
Parents and guardians can use new options in Epic’s Parental Controls to set content age rating limits based on their family’s preferences. These controls can be used to prevent their children from playing content above a certain rating. Parents can also unlock specific islands that exceed their ratings threshold, using their Parental Controls PIN.
In the Parental Controls, there’s also an option to turn on/off the ability for children to design their own islands with Fortnite Creative and/or Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN).
No patch notes have been released yet, but some info has been revealed via datamined content.
