The 34-year-old royal - who is expecting his first child with wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex - has declared the game 'so irresponsible' because children are growing addicted to it.

LONDON - Prince Harry has called for Fortnite to be banned because children are getting addicted to it.

"It's like waiting for the damage to be done and kids turning up on your doorsteps and families being broken down. Fortnite shouldn't be allowed. Where is the benefit in having that game in your household? Speaking during a visit to the YMCA in south Ealing, west London on Wednesday, where he met with charity representatives from organisations including Young Minds and Stonewall, he said: "There's too much negativity surrounding mental health and it must be so hard for young people to talk about it. Social media is more addictive than drugs and alcohol, and it's more dangerous because it's normalised and there are no restrictions to it.

I’m actually just disappointed. This is like total CNN, fake news, spin doctoring. But hey, it’s twitter. Who actually cares about what I think?🤷🏻‍♂️

See, it’s a very different thing when you say “we need more control” versus “banning.” Banning implies government intervention. I doubt a prince of England can even get involved in making declarations about what can and can’t be banned

I mean, he really didn’t call for the ban of the game. He said parents should take control and limit their children in front of the screen. Surely that doesn’t apply to a 30 year old person choosing to play for 19 hours straight. I doubt Harry cares about that.
