How do Epic Games Settings Work for Parental Controls and Safety?

[Andre Smith]

I’m trying to understand Epic Games settings and how they can be used to manage my child’s gaming experience. What options are available for controlling screen time, in-game purchases, and chat or friend requests? Are these settings effective across games like Fortnite, and can parents adjust them remotely? I’d appreciate simple guidance or real experiences from other parents who’ve used Epic Games settings for safety.

Epic Games parental controls allow parents to control the account of a child using PIN-protect settings menu. You have an option of limiting game ratings, blocking or allowing chats and friends requests, purchase controls, and playtime. Environments are applicable in such Epic games as Fortnite and Rocket league.

Epic Games parental controls let parents use a PIN to manage chat, friend requests, in-game purchases, and screen time. Settings are managed through the Epic Games account. They help protect kids by limiting communication, spending, and access to age-inappropriate content.

Epic Games lets parents manage safety through Parental Controls in their account settings. You can set a PIN, restrict in-game purchases, limit playtime, and control chat or friend interactions. These settings help keep kids’ accounts secure and ensure they only access age-appropriate content.
