Isn't he already in Call of Duty?
Yes but a big difference is Call of Duty is an M rated video game whereas Fortnite is rated T. Fortnite doesn't feature blood, death, or swearing. Does it matter that the same kids probably play both? That's for the parents to decide
The point of the game is to shoot people with actual guns until you're the only person (or team) left. Is the word "kill" really where ESRB draws the line?? (not that I think fortnite should be rated R)
I imagine Epic cares less about what the ESRB thinks and more about what the CCP thinks, seeing as Tencent has a major stake in Epic. China is generally anti-death in games
Personally, I can't wait for XXX rated fortnight. /s
