Custom news feed articles in Creator Portal

Above the ready-up button there is a news feed that shows updates to Battle Royale, Festival, etc.
What if we had this for Creator-made games?

Here’s how I think it could work;

  • Per game, in Creator Portal, there is a tab for News. You can submit an image, description, title, and an (optional) video per article to show in the news tab. The video would play as a gif.
  • Up to 3 articles can be submitted at a time, and can be changed without updating the map.
  • All news articles must go through moderation and must get accepted to show on news tabs at all. Similar to islands, but it should probably be stricter (in some areas).
  • News articles are very likely to show when hovering over their island in the homebar, and when the map is selected. If the map is favorited, then there’s a chance it shows on other modes as well with a button to go to the gamemode.
  • Analytics tabs will show how many users saw the ad, users that clicked on the news feed when it was showing, etc.

I believe adding this could improve the promotional experience for players, and could be a way to show players the type of experience they’ll have before entering the map.

I really hope this gets considered and potentially added!

Thank you for reading.
