A Fortnite Switch release is totally a thing according to the Korean ratings board, which has just listed the game citing its "comic expression of a slight level of attack." The application appears to have come from Epic Games Korea and, this close to to E3, expect a Fortnite Switch release to be announced among all the other E3 2018 games this year.

  • Fortnite Blockbuster Challenges
  • Fortnite patch 4.3.0 adds shield-boosting mushrooms and shopping carts

Here's the tweet from an unofficial account that posts new listings from the Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee: 

[2018-06-01][비디오 게임][포트나이트(Fortnite) Nintendo Switch][에픽게임즈코리아][12세 이용가]https://t.co/LjN1fMIKabJune 1, 2018

While, as I mentioned, that's an unofficial account, the link goes through to the Korean GRAC site and a listing for Fortnite Switch:

A third-person shooter action Nintendo switch game that collects resources and blocks monsters by building defense defenses.

Therefore, according to Article 21 of the Act on the Promotion of the Game Industry and Article 9 (2) of the Regulations on the Classification, Contents Information Displayed.

So there you go. Epic Korea has applied for a age rating for Fortnite on the Switch and got a '12' for all the comedic attack and weapons against humans and extraterrestrials. Sounds about right. 

That seems to back up another leak posted to 4chan that apparently shows a document requesting marketing materials for showroom displays: 

  • E3 2018 schedule: How and when to watch all the big E3 press conferences

While 'leaked' E3 documents are some of the least reliable sources around, the ratings board post seems to back this up and at least one person seems to thing the specs listed match the usual E3 display stands. 

The dimensions of the substrate match previous displays. Design is different however. pic.twitter.com/ceJmJWKeNHMay 31, 2018
