TL;DR Summary

Epic Games will now share 40% of Fortnite revenue with anyone who designs "islands" in the game, including money earned from V-Bucks, real money spent on items, and Fortnite Crew subscriptions. Creators can develop their own unique in-game experiences with custom rulesets and designs, and their payout is determined by how popular the island is. Fortnite is getting an Unreal Engine editor, which is now available in public beta. The new creator program, called "Creator Economy 2.0," offers more incentives for amateur game designers. Epic's choice of 40% is interesting, given its ongoing lawsuit with Apple over the App Store's 30% cut.
