Disney committed 1.5 billion dollars to Epic Games in February 2024 for developing a persistent digital world within Fortnite. The collaboration will feature characters and settings from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and Avatar franchises. Epic Games Executive Vice President Saxs Persson described the vision as players moving seamlessly between different branded experiences within connected gaming ecosystems. The project aims to establish Disney content within Epic's established platform rather than creating separate applications.

Recent Wall Street Journal reporting suggested internal Epic Games sources expressed frustration about collaboration delays. Anonymous employees claimed Disney's approval processes across multiple corporate divisions slowed progress on the initiative codenamed Bulldog. Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney rejected these characterizations on the social media platform X. He stated Disney partnerships proceeded ten times faster than typical media industry collaborations and criticized the publication for ignoring positive statements Epic provided. The ambitious project targets completion by fall 2026, according to industry sources.
