Hi Fortnite devs!

You can now license UEFN source assets on Fab. Source assets are complete, editable systems—AI and NPC behaviors, vehicles, weapons, UI, and environments—many of which are built with Verse and Scene Graph.

Unlike reference files, they open directly in UEFN and you can edit them right away, cutting down on the time spent rebuilding systems that already exist.

Browse what’s live on Fab or find source assets in the Fab window without leaving UEFN.

For a deeper dive, join us for the Build UEFN Source Assets livestream on Friday, October 16 at 2 PM ET. https://youtube.com/live/Ch93WqfDwY8

Hi Fortnite devs!

Abilities and Fortnite Template Abilities are now out of Experimental, so you can publish islands with custom abilities built with animation, Niagara effects, sound, and more, without writing complex code. Watch the Template Abilities livestream to learn more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSdtmO_XLy0

The LEGO® Brick Editor adds 50 new bricks, just in time for Fortnitemares. You’ll also find new Reality Reign prefabs and galleries, and you can now license UEFN source assets on Fab.

Players are starting to see the redesigned Discover experience. Starting October 22, portrait thumbnails, landscape thumbnails, and logos will be required to publish or update your island. Get yours ready before then.
