Fixing the “EULA Must be Accepted to Play” Error in Fortnite | Detailed Guide

After a small new update, many Fortnite gamers face an annoying error that doesn’t seem to be fixed using traditional methods. The error displays a screen after launching the game. It reads “Fortnite EULA must be accepted to play,” which sounds understandable as Epic Games has updated some terms and conditions that must be accepted before you start playing.

However, for many, the game does not seem to progress past this screen despite accepting the new EULA conditions.

1. How to fix EULA must be accepted to play error in Fortnite?

To fix the EULA error, ensure that the “eulatracking-public-service-prod-ol.epicgames.com” domain is whitelisted by ad-blockers or similar services on your platform. Epic Games has officially announced this fix.

Therefore, once you opt Epic Games’ EULA tracking out of the ad blocker the game should function as usual. With this, your error must be fixed. However, if that is not the case for your PlayStation, you can try another trick to patch it up.

2. Fixing EULA Fortnite error on PlayStation

To fix the EULA Fortnite error on PS4 and PS5:

• Open the Internet Browser on the device.
• Press the ‘Options‘ button.
• Go to ‘Settings‘.
• Uncheck the “prevent cross-site tracking” option.

Now, you can go back and launch Fortnite. You should not see the error screen this time. If you apply both these fixes one of them is sure to solve the issue you are facing!
