I don't play Fortnite. What does that imply? Do creators get a cut every single time a match is held in their map? If so, then how much? Paying several millions for a map seems like a very ambitious bet to make a profit.

With Fortnite operating as an expansive ecosystem where creators can monetize their maps through Epic Games' engagement payout model

It sounds like they can route the money made through the map (however it makes money) into thier pockets instead of the guy who made it.

I'd wager they intend to now license the map out to various influencers and esports events to make the big returns.

I think so, there may also be a Roblox-type system in the game in the future where big games could be able to use Vbucks to buy in game items.
