Staff at Epic Games are working in a state of constant crunch in order to maintain Fortnite and its games-as-a-service structure, according to a new report.
A lengthy feature from Polygon, based on interviews with several sources from within the company, explains how all departments – from production to customer service – have been trapped in a seemingly endless work cycle since the battle royale become the world’s most popular game.
“I work an average 70 hours a week,” one source revealed. “There’s probably at least 50 or even 100 other people at Epic working those hours. I know people who pull 100-hour weeks.”
