Lego and Fortnite maker Epic Games have today announced a “long-term partnership to shape the future of the metaverse” with a focus on building a safe space for young players.
“The family-friendly digital experience will give kids access to tools that will empower them to become confident creators and deliver amazing play opportunities in a safe and positive space,” the pair announced in a joint statement today.
Details are thin on the ground, but it feels like a major commitment for Lego’s digital future, and a huge win for Epic Games to be entrusted with the notoriously child-safe brand.
