📱Incredibly cool to see Droid Tycoon searchable on the App Store, and featured by Fortnite. We worked hard to optimize the experience for mobile, and hope new players can discover the fun of crafting droids from the comfort and convenience of their phone. 🤳🏻

If you don't see it yet, you will, as we roll out the new version over the coming weeks.
Reminder: New Discover image assets will be required to publish or update an island starting Oct 22. Get ready by uploading yours in the Creator Portal. fn.gg/uefn-thumbs

So excited for this, give it a try! If you're a Fortnite Dev working on a live project or a competitive player, it's probably best to stay with the current launcher for now. Check the FAQ for all of the info.
We vibe coded the Epic Games Launcher to be faster than the other guy.
Don't believe us? Test it out for yourself in Preview:

Update: if you're a dev or competitive player, give it a shot!

Game studios rejected her. So she built her own Fortnite games.
Now @LenaGlitchFN is behind viral Star Wars & KPop Demon Hunters maps.
We get into the crazy deadlines, going viral, and moments like this. 😂

Optimizing a 6 km² open world in #UEFN is no joke 4 biomes, 67+ systems, and a LOT to optimize in @SurpriseCityFN.
Made a video breaking down how we got:
Memory: 92% → 65%
Download: 348 MB → ~160 MB
Huge shoutout to @GameDevMicah for his HLOD & material videos!
