Parents who say their kids won't eat or shower because they're addicted to Fortnite slam Epic Games with lawsuit
"A Canadian Supreme Court judge authorized a lawsuit against Fortnite's manufacturer filed by Quebec parents who say their children became addicted to the video game.
In July, three parents told Justice Sylvain Lussier that their children appeared to be severely dependent on Fortnite, and stopped eating, sleeping, and showering as a result, BBC News reports.
Lussier's Wednesday ruling determined the class-action suit wasn't "frivolous or manifestly ill-founded," according to Global News.
"The court concludes that there is a serious issue to be argued, supported by sufficient and specific allegations as to the existence of risks or even dangers arising from the use of Fortnite," Lussier ruled."
