Canadian parents looking to file a Fortnite class action claim that the popular battle royale game is as addictive as cocaine. According to the parents, playing the game activates the dopamine receptors in the brain. This mechanism is reportedly linked to the addictive response in the brain. The developing brains of children are allegedly vulnerable to addiction, meaning young players easily become dependent on playing the game. Around the world and in Canada, there are reportedly treatment centers dedicated to helping addicted players recover from their Fortnite obsessions. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with Scott Hardy, President of Top Class Actions.
