British Noble Bad-Boy, Prince Harry, wants to ban popular battle royale game Fortnite in the UK.
According to The Daily Express, the noble recently spoke to mental health experts at a YMCA in West London about addictive games and social media. Experts even say that both are ‘more addictive than drugs or alcohol’.
Prince Harry calls out Epic Games’ Fortnite
“That game shouldn’t be allowed. Where is the benefit of having it in your household? It’s created to
addict . An addiction to keep you in front of a computer for as long as possible. It’s so irresponsible. It’s like waiting for the damage to be done and kids turning up on your doorsteps and families being broken down”.
According to the BBC, research shows that 200 divorces in the UK from January to September 2018 mentioned addiction to Fortnite and other games as the reason for the breakdown.
Prince Harry’s comments came just before the BAFTA British Academy Game Awards. It is the biggest night in for UK gaming. God of War took 5 British Academy Games Awards, including top game honor ‘Best Game’. Fortnite took the evolving game honor.
