Steps to Reproduce
Load into project, view any VFX that are played via cinematic sequences. In this case, there is supposed to be a rift that appears on top of the device in the center.
Expected Result
VFX plays, both in editor and in game, as the “activate” node is supposed to do.
Observed Result
VFX do not properly play at all when activated by the cinematic. Transform, lights, and everything else seems to work properly, but VFX are specifically not working.

Additional Notes
We made no changes that could have potentially caused this issue to occur, and if we had, it would be working in a previously published version.
The island code above was uploaded before season launch, to which we have been experiencing these issues after the update released.
