FORTNITE
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FORTNITE” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Epic Games, Inc., a corporation organized in Maryland. It covers a wide range of goods, including children’s books, trading cards, paper party items, beverage glassware, dishes, lunch bags, tablecloths, various clothing items such as beanies, coats, jackets, loungewear, sports jerseys, swimwear, and decorative backpack charms, as well as balloons, board games, plush toys, and other play sets. A similar name would raise the closest concern in any of these categories, especially in the apparel or toy sectors where the mark is actively used. The record does not give Epic Games control over every use of the word “FORTNITE” in all contexts. The latest significant event is the registration on January 18, 2022; no further maintenance or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the presence of this active registration in overlapping goods suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
