A series of textures can accidentally create the symbol by joining Epic Games' free-to-play shooter.

Fortnite has faced a surprising problem originated by the generation of textures of its mapping, and that has caused that in certain joints of these accidentally originates a swastika: that is, a cross whose arms are bent at a right angle inward and that it symbolizes, depending on its meaning and some parameters, religious / mythological symbolism of some cultures or one of the most sadly remembered identity signs of Nazi Germany.

They have discovered a group of four users who, trying to create a dance floor with certain materials in a game, ended up causing a swastika in a casual way. The subject has led a heated debate in Reddit, where a thread called " Epic must explain this swastika " has been opened , and in which explanations are requested from the creators of the Gears of War saga about this element that arises involuntarily in your shooter

The Verge portal has an interview with the own Epic Games in which the study assures that they will eliminate the swastika from Fortnite as soon as possible. "It was not intentional, and it will be corrected as soon as possible by adjusting the design of the metal parts," they explain from the study, which date for next week the solution to this problem.
