Epic links the next engine to Fortnite production
Epic said the goal is to let developers create games of any scale once and deploy them to traditional platforms, Fortnite, or other live ecosystems. The company framed Fortnite not just as a game, but as part of the production pipeline behind the next generation of Unreal tools.
- Announcement date: June 17, 2026.
- Venue: Unreal Fest Chicago.
