Island title remains translated after disabling title auto-localization

Summary

I unchecked machine localization for my island title while preparing an update, but the Japanese Fortnite client still displays the previous translated title, “上昇: 近接”, instead of “ASCEND : MELEE”. Restarting Fortnite and searching for the island again did not resolve it.

  1. In Creator Portal, enter “ASCEND : MELEE” as the island title and uncheck machine localization for the title.
  2. Submit the updated release and wait until it is published.
  3. Open Fortnite with the client language set to Japanese.
  4. Search for island code 1584-6259-4511 and select the island.
  5. Start matchmaking and observe the title on the island preparation card.
  6. Restart Fortnite and search for the island again. The translated title remains.

Expected Result

The island title should display as “ASCEND : MELEE” in the Japanese Fortnite client when machine localization for the title is disabled.
