are you using the statistic to imply that women would be less likely to enjoy fortnite in the first place, or that they would be more likely to encounter embarrassment what would be a work-related event?

if the game isn't as appealing to women for whatever cultural reasons, it's probably not appropriate to endorse it for team building. if the pervasive harassment is the main concern, this is much easier to work around. very little is lost by disabling area comms in battle royale games; I usually disable it because I don't want to hear fifty people eating their mics in spawn. in games like CS, you can just host a private server for a trivial amount of money.

in general though, I have mixed feelings about company events after work hours. inevitably, there will be people who don't care for the "fun" activity and but feel obligated to participate or worry about missing networking opportunities if they don't. especially when it comes to something like videogames, it's quite easy for people to organize this stuff themselves without an official endorsement from the company. I don't really see any reason why a company should go beyond just giving employees space in slack to organize activities outside of work.
