Can you get fancy in-game fonts in Fortnite?

Can you get fancy in-game fonts in Fortnite? Unfortunately, the answer is no. You cannot get fancy in-game fonts in Fortnite. There is no safe and/or legitimate way to get them as far as official means go. Every player's name will use the same font throughout Epic Games' ecosystem. This has likely been implemented to ensure quality control across all its games.

Certain symbols that can be found on the keyboard are also non-usable. Things like exclamation mark (!), hash (#), at the rate sign (@), and others cannot be used while typing out a username. Other symbols that can be created using the Alt-Key plus numbers located on the numeric keypad/number pad/numpad are also invalid. It would seem aside from fancy in-game fonts in Fortnite, symbols are a no-go as well.

You are free to type out names using these symbols, but before/during the verification process, Epic Games will not allow you to proceed. There might be a way to bypass this hardlock, but it is unadvisable to try it out. The same goes for trying to use fancy in-game fonts in Fortnite.
