Apparently, Rocket League and Fall Guys are being ported to Fortnite. Both games currently work on Linux, but in the future, they may require playing through Fortnite (lemmy.ml)

I mean Fortnite is more a game engine than a game itself. It's far more comparable to Roblox than anything else

Game engine in a game engine.

More like an SDK for a game engine.

It's just UE5 with more limitations.

And since the two games they are "porting" into FN are already also built in Unreal, this isn't so much porting as it would be simply copying and pasting in code and assets.
