Can't enter the "Golden Rift" in creative.

I can’t enter the Golden Rift in creative mode and I don’t know how to fix it.
When I enter the game and go to the console all I see is portal destination locked and no sign of the rift.

Platform:
PC

Thank you for your report! We would like to look into this further, would you be able to submit a bug report using the form available here: Fortnite Creative

I am having this exact same issue and have found no fixes for it either. I submitted a bug report using Alien-Lady’s link, but have gotten no response.

Choose one of your creative islands in the creator portal (click on it and open it)

Then when you go back into creative the portal should be set to that island

Also make sure you havent unstarred them in creator portal as this stops them being accessed

Sadly It doesnt let you click on the portal. Clicking any form of interact key/button while aimed at the console yields no response. I’ve revisited my creative hub several days in a row now and still have this same issue, can’t get passed the “portal destination locked” and there still is no sign of the golden rift.

I dont mean clicking on that portal. I mean click on a different island on create.fortnite.com and make sure it is starred (unstarred ones dont seem to work)


I also can’t access my golden rift. The console does not give me a prompt. I have been contacting epic for over a month now, and the people I have spoke to seem to know nothing about the game. They reset my game files and still nothing. All I want is to create something. This is mind boggling.
I believe it has something to do with transferring from ps4 to ps5 with four years between the two. Any help would be appreciated

We’re checking into this!

Hello everyone,

I just came across the discussion and, bad news, I’m one more player to have this problem:

  • No creative mode
  • No golden rift
  • Island settings tool not working with that horrible message “Portal destination locked”.

I’ve tried to contact Epic Games player support but unfortunately they don’t help me. My requests are closed every time …

It’s very lonely to be faced with such reactions. The problem can only be solved by Epic Games.

It’s really not right to leave us in this state when we also deserve to enjoy the creative mode, just like everyone else.

Courage to us all

@LunienZ Thank you for your report! We would like to look into this further, would you be able to submit a bug report using the form available here? Fortnite Creative

This problem happens when the selected island has been ‘unstarred’ in the creator portal (create.fortnite.com)

All you need to do to fix it is to press the star back on your islands and/or click through to a different island on the creator portal which changes the target of the golden rift

After several attempts it still doesn’t work. So it’s not coming from the target… But thanks anyway @X_TyFighter_X

What’s really strange is that the game doesn’t seem to recognize the settings device:

Epic is working on a fix!!
