Epic says Fortnite Sidekicks are now available as scriptable NPCs in Unreal Editor for Fortnite, letting creators customize appearance, script behavior with Verse, and animate them. Epic also says creators can publish islands using Sidekicks starting July 23, 2026. Build Worlds, Build Bonds: Fortnite Sidekicks Now Available as NPCs for Your Islands
The company says these islands will be eligible for a new creature-based Collection page and additional Discover featuring through Epic’s Picks and a Callout. That makes the feature more than a character update; it is also a distribution push for a new genre lane. Build Worlds, Build Bonds: Fortnite Sidekicks Now Available as NPCs for Your Islands
What creators can do
Epic says Sidekicks can support games such as monster battlers, cozy farming games, creature-collection RPGs, and companion adventures. The post also says creators can bring a player’s own Sidekick into their island, which could help tie a player’s owned companion to custom gameplay.
