FORTNITE

What this record means

The record shows that “FORTNITE” is a live Principal Register trademark owned by Epic Games, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and it is currently active. The registration covers “Toy action figures” in International Class 028, with a first use date of November 1 2018, so a similar name used for toys or collectible figures would raise the closest record‑based concern. The USPTO filing does not give Epic Games control over every possible use of the word “FORTNITE,” especially in unrelated product categories. The prosecution history reflects normal processing—filing, a statement of use, and a notice of allowance—without any supplemental‑register amendment, so there is no supplemental‑register nuance to note. The most recent meaningful event is the acceptance of the Section 8 (six‑year renewal) and Section 15 (ownership) declarations on February 5 2025, confirming continued registration. The history contains three “NOTICE OF SUIT” entries in 2020 but no other enforcement actions are visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a toy‑related brand that sounds like “FORTNITE.”
