Epic's Picks Playtesting Process Taking Too Long

Hi everyone,

I submitted my map TAG ROYALE💥(Map Code: 8662-9643-1648) for Epic’s Picks and got the initial approval email about 3 weeks ago. They said that my map is awaiting playtesting. Since then, I haven’t received any updates, and I was wondering:

  1. How long does playtesting usually take?
  2. If my map hasn’t been featured after a month or more, should I resubmit?
  3. Is there any way to check the status of my submission, or do I just wait?

I tried reaching out to Epic Player Support, but they said they don’t handle this process. If anyone here has gone through Epic’s Picks before, I’d really appreciate any insights!

Unfortunately this is typical, I’ve had one waiting for over 4 weeks after passing review just to get rejected. Epic’s picks is probably overflowed with submissions so as of right now it seems to be mostly luck, one of my first maps got accepted but all my maps since then have been rejected even though they are much higher quality and more fun than the one that got in haha. The feedback you’ll get too will be extremely vague like “consider enhancing the gameplay experience”

Since you’ve had more maps rejected after the playtesting process, how much time did the map that took the most time take?

To get playtesting I’ve waited up to 75 days and after that another 4-5 weeks
