We had the amazing opportunity to work on the CLAYFACE trailer Fortnite integration. We recreated movie scenes using Fortnite assets and a custom 3D Matt Hagen model. Here is a comparison of the original shots vs. our recreations.

We started Chartis with one simple question: “How do we help UEFN creators become successful.”  We’ve had quite the past 3 years, working closely with creators big and small, from @BirdoBro and @dagwummy -shoutout GDC 2024- to @FeRinS_FN @HazeCoding @TeraCreators , @ChitaZ , @ManuA12, and @jaythofficial just to name a few of the 150+ creators I get to spend every day with.  But the stakes have changed. AI is opening up exponential possibilities for creators on Fortnite and Roblox, but also new entrants like Google Playground, Spawn, and Astrocade. We’ve bootstrapped Chartis for close to three years, and now the opportunity to help hundreds of thousands of new creators be more successful means we need to scale and accelerate. We’re taking investment from @MrDylanCollins , Maximilian Bleyleben, and their Attention Holdings vehicle to 1000x what we’re already doing. Dylan is well known in the UGC space (he’s founded multiple successful companies including SuperAwesome, which Epic Games acquired) and Max has scaled multiple companies (including SuperAwesome as co-founder & COO). More importantly, they are joining us full time, bringing immense firepower to our already incredible team. This is the evolution of Chartis, going from bootstrapping to accelerating - (still fueled by Yerba, beers, and vibes) We’re focused on launching more services and initiatives for UGC creators on Fortnite to help them become wildly successful. But we’re not stopping there. AI has clearly opened up the gates to people who like games but could never (until now) become game creators. The future’s wild and we’re just getting started. LFG

LFG. Big day for Chartis, but an even bigger next few years ahead. The future is bright, and we can't wait to build that future alongside everyone else in this community.

There's now a virtual Best Buy you can visit in Fortnite, including minigames and quests where players can earn exclusive rewards
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The post claims players can earn exclusive rewards including a Best Buy-themed back bling via quests on the Drive City Creative map, but these are map-specific (not added to permanent Fortnite lockers or usable elsewhere). x.com/backersgamesf/… corporate.bestbuy.com/2026/fortnite/ dexerto.com/fortnite/best-…
