FORTNITE

What this record means

This mark is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Epic Games, Inc., a corporation organized in Maryland. The registration was filed on September 12, 2018 and issued on February 9, 2021, with a status date of June 24, 2026. The goods covered are picture books and story books in class 016, and decorative backpack charms in class 026, with first use in commerce on November 30, 2018 and December 8, 2020 respectively. A similar name would raise the closest concern for uses in those specific categories—books for children or decorative backpack accessories—rather than for unrelated goods or services. The record does not grant control over every use of the word “FORTNITE.” No opposition, cancellation, or enforcement activity appears in the supplied history, so the owner has not shown any visible enforcement signals. The next consequential date is the status date of June 24, 2026; no renewal or maintenance event is listed beyond that. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is highest if the name is used for children’s books or backpack charms, while uses in other fields may be less directly affected.
