As it turns out, Fortnite<\/a><\/em> and Roblox<\/a> relying on user-made content can get a bit messy. Team Hive, a studio dedicated to creating user-generated content in Fortnite<\/em>, appeared to tease an upcoming game seemingly inspired by the popular Roblox game, Dress to Impress<\/a><\/em>, on Sunday. However, on Tuesday, a developer from the Dress to Impress <\/em>team responded by saying that the game from Team Hive is not official and described the Fortnite <\/em>experience as a \u201cfan-made\u201d game.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have no intentions of creating Dress to Impress on another platform.\u201d Zac, a development manager on Dress to Impress<\/em>, said via X<\/a>, \u201cYou can only play the real Dress To Impress on ROBLOX. All offsite games using the title and similar gameplay are fan-made.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

The clarification comes after Team Hive posted a vague teaser for a fashion game<\/a> on X (formerly Twitter): \u201cDress your best to impress\u2026 Coming 2025 to [Fortnite],\u201d it said. The quote appeared to reference the popular dress-up game, so some speculated<\/a> it implied an official game would be coming to the platform.<\/p>\n

Matthew Behan, CEO of Team Hive, told Polygon via email that the teaser was for a game now called Fashion Show<\/em> that the studio is developing for Fortnite<\/em> using Unreal Editor.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not a \u2018fan-made\u2019 game,\u201d Behan said. \u201cOur fashion show will be titled something completely different. We have had this game in development since mid-2023 after a popular fashion brand reached out to us wanting to integrate into our popular Fortnite experiences. Most of our current games are shooters, so we needed a solution to smoothly integrate fashion products from brand deals.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Behan, Fashion Show<\/em> will allow players to equip accessories modeled to support Epic Games\u2019 skins in addition to Fortnite<\/em> outfits they have previously purchased. Behan also pointed Polygon to a trailer for the game from 2020<\/a>, before Epic Games released the Unreal Editor for Fortnite<\/em> to the public<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Behan said the use of the phrase \u201cdress your best to impress\u201d in the teaser was purposely differentiated from \u201cdress to impress\u201d to avoid misleading or confusing players.<\/p>\n

Originally released in 2023, Dress to Impress <\/em>is a competitive dress-up game<\/a> hosted on the gaming platform Roblox. The game exploded in popularity last year and its page on Roblox says it has more than <\/strong>5.5 billion total player logins<\/a> at the time of publication. Dress-up games have been popular on the Roblox platform for years. Fashion Famous<\/em>, a Roblox game, has more than 2.2 billion lifetime log-ins since it was released back in 2016, and later games like It Girl <\/em>iterate on the basic competitive dress-up game concept that Dress to Impress <\/em>popularized.<\/p>\n

Polygon has reached out to the Dress to Impress<\/em> team and will update this story as we hear back.<\/p>\n
