FORTNITE
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows a live, Principal Register registration for “FORTNITE” owned by Epic Games, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and it is currently active. The registration covers two classes: Class 016 for “comic books” and Class 041 for “providing a website featuring blogs and non‑downloadable publications in the nature of articles in the field of gaming.” A similar name used on comic‑book titles or on a gaming‑related website would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those specific goods or services fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give Epic Games control over every possible use of the word “FORTNITE.” The latest meaningful event is a May 4 2026 courtesy reminder for the required Section 8 filing (the six‑year maintenance notice), followed by a post‑registration action mailed on August 14 2026. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I’d treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that touches comic books or gaming‑site content.
