UNREAL EDITOR for Fortnite Battle Royale
The Unreal Editor is a key feature of Unreal Engine, Epic’s toolset used by professional game developers to make all kinds of amazing games that are playable on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, mobile devices, PC, and Mac.
Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) is a new PC application for designing, developing, and publishing games and experiences directly into Fortnite. Over time, UEFN will evolve to feature most of the same tools available in Unreal Engine. Today in the public beta, UEFN enables a wide variety of games and experiences ranging from highly stylized cel-shaded team combat to ultra-realistic sims, playable right inside the Fortnite you already have installed.
UPGRADE! FORTNITE CREATOR ECONOMY 2.0
To support the creators building and contributing to the overall success of Fortnite, today we have also launched Creator Economy 2.0 with engagement payouts to eligible island publishers, both creators and Epic. Engagement payouts proportionally distribute 40% of the net revenue from Fortnite’s Item Shop and most real-money Fortnite purchases to all island publishers on a monthly basis. Payouts are based on what players enjoy in Fortnite and account for things like island popularity, engagement, and attracting new players.
Engagement payout funds are separate from Support-A-Creator and are designed to reward island creators who publish content in Fortnite. We’ve removed the Support-A-Creator device from the game entirely, which means creators can focus on developing fun and engaging experiences without asking you to use their Creator Code. Every time you play your favorite island or game in Fortnite, you are supporting its creator monetarily, no code is required!
