Epic lancia un richiamo alle creature per isole UEFN in stile Sidekick
Epic sta indirizzando i creatori verso esperienze basate sulle creature dopo aver aperto Sidekicks come NPC programmabili in UEFN. Le isole idonee possono anche ottenere Discover tramite una nuova pagina di raccolta e un richiamo.

Epic says Fortnite Sidekicks are now available as scriptable NPCs in UEFN, and that creators can publish islands using them starting July 23. The company says the new tools are intended to support creature-based games such as monster battlers, cozy farming games, creature-collection RPGs, and companion adventures. (fortnite.com)
Why this matters for creators
- Creators can customize Sidekick visuals, script behavior with Verse, and animate them.
- Epic says players can even bring their own Sidekick into an experience.
- Eligible islands may surface in a new creature-based Collection page and through additional Discover featuring opportunities.
The most important new detail is Epic’s callout-style Discover push around creature-based islands, which gives Sidekick-focused projects a clearer promotional path than a generic tools update. That makes this more than a feature drop; it is also a curation signal for what Epic wants creators to build next. (fortnite.com)
Timeline
- Builds are available now.
- Publishing opens on July 23, 2026.
- Epic says interested creators should check the forums for Creature Callout submission details.
For UEFN studios, that means July is a good time to prototype companion systems and creature loops before publishing opens. (fortnite.com)
