🌟 Fortnite Ecosystem v41.00 Update Summary

📅 June 5, 2026

🎮 Major Creator Updates:

1️⃣ Sidekicks as NPCs in UEFN
Sidekicks are now available as scriptable NPCs in UEFN.

Creators can customize how they look, animate them, script behavior with Verse, and even bring a player’s own Sidekick into an island experience.

Important note:
🔹 Publishing islands with Sidekick NPCs opens July 23
🔹 Creature based islands may get new Discover opportunities
🔹 Great for monster battlers, cozy farming games, creature RPGs, companion adventures, and more
🔹 Epic plans to feature creature-based islands in a new creature-based Collection page

2️⃣ Custom Weapon Templates
Creators can now use Scene Graph weapon templates for:
🔸 Pistol
🔸 SMG
🔸 Assault Rifle
🔸 Shotgun

You can customize how weapons look, sound, and play, including mesh, VFX, audio, damage, fire rate, spread, and recoil.

Important note:
These Scene Graph entities are not compatible with older saving methods like the Save Point device. Epic says to use Verse persistence.

3️⃣ Mobile Controls Upgrade (Experimental)
Big step for mobile friendly Fortnite games.
🔹 Touch Input Gestures
🔹 Custom touchscreen control layouts
🔹 Tappable custom HUD widgets
🔹 Verse API to detect touch enabled devices
🔹 New Designing for Mobile guide
This should help genres like tycoons, puzzle games, menus, inventories, and mobile first UI feel way better.

4️⃣ Community Events
Starting June 8, creators can create events in Fortnite Communities and share them in game.
Events can show in:
🔸 Following tab
🔸 Creator Profile page
🔸 Island page
🔸 Island Lobby, if enabled

Epic is also testing a Community Events row in Discover, but it will not show for all players and placement is not guaranteed.

🛠 UEFN Workflow Updates:
🔸 Push Changes now incrementally cooks only modified project parts
🔸 New Edit List Panel shows what is live and what still needs a push
🔸 Launch Session now combines multiple session actions
🔸 New Session Inspector gives better visibility into launch and Live Edit status
🔸 New Publishing Report helps catch issues before publishing
🔸 Improved Verse warning panel with direct VS Code links
🔸 New Editor Gizmo System
🔸 Physics setting moved into Island Settings
🔸 New Memory Snapshot tools help identify asset memory costs
🔸 Asset validation now warns when static meshes exceed 30k vertices at LOD0

Important Live Edit note:
Live Edit is improved, but some changes can still require Push Changes. The new tools make it clearer what is already live and what still needs to be pushed.

⚠️ Important Publishing Change:
Illegal Property Override warnings are now errors in v41.00.

That means new or updated islands with these errors are blocked from publishing. Current published versions where the warning appeared will stay live.

👤 Follow a Developer Update:
In v41.10, Epic will remove the Follow a Developer button from the Developer Profile Link device.

The device itself will still be usable, and existing follower counts are not affected.

If your island currently tells players to follow you through that device, update those callouts before v41.10.

🧑‍🚀 Hero Device Star Wars Update:
More Star Wars characters have been added to the Hero device for Star Wars islands:
🔹 Luke Skywalker
🔹 Obi-Wan Kenobi
🔹 Mace Windu
🔹 Kylo Ren
🔹 IG-11
🔹 Moff Gideon
🔹 Boba Fett

Official trailer announcement of Rocket League moving ot UE6

[Immature @ImmatureGamer]

🚨 Unreal Engine 6 looks like the start of Epic’s next major ecosystem shift.

Rocket League is officially moving to UE6, and Epic’s announcement showed more than just Rocket League.

The graphic included Fortnite, Disney, LEGO Fortnite, UEFN experiences, and Rocket League together inside one larger ecosystem.

That is the real story.

UE6 is starting to look like the foundation for Epic connecting its biggest games, IP, and creator-made experiences.

🚨 UEFN Developers 🚨

If you genuinely believe the system is broken, do more than just like posts.

Stop being afraid to speak up because you think honest feedback will hurt your chances with Epic. Constructive criticism is something they need to hear right now.

Comment. Share feedback. Repost concerns. Make your voice heard.

But do it respectfully. Don’t turn every discussion into attacks or toxicity. Be clear, constructive, and honest about the issues you’re seeing.

And don’t wait to speak up only when the problems finally affect you personally.

A healthy ecosystem requires feedback from everyone, not just the creators currently affected.

The patchnotes didn't feel like telling, but we got the Gold Splash water type for the Water Volume device this update! 🪙🌊

Works the same as the others. Jump in the water and get the special effects! (In this case the gold splash from Lawless)

[EDMIRE @EDMIRE2k]

Let’s me put this into perspective. This is a full scale BR map, same size as Chapter 6, with many custom assets, textures, music, materials, ambient audio. Fully baked HLODs, gameplay systems, cinematics and rigging.

And we managed to fit it within memory, and into under 400mb

[Immature @ImmatureGamer]

🚨 Epic just updated the “How Discover Works” documentation.

The biggest creator takeaways:
• New islands can be tested for up to 2 weeks
• Engagement drives distribution
• Bounce rate and social play metrics are coming to analytics
• Thumbnail best practices matter more starting June 2026
• Copycat titles and thumbnails can reduce visibility
• Reusing Verse code and devices is allowed
• Genre selection determines row eligibility
• Search uses both keyword and semantic matching

[Fortnite Developers @FNCreate]

We've updated our ‘How Discover Works’ documentation to reflect the recent changes to Discover. It covers how islands are evaluated, key metrics, thumbnail best practices, and where your island can appear.

[Backers | Fortnite News @BackersGamesF]

DROID TYCOON is the TOP 1 Star Wars game IN THE WORLD right now with a new record of 87.846 players

Other games like Battlefront II and The Old Republic by EA have 5-7k players (all-time peak: 34k-35k)

[Surprise KiKoZl @K1K000ZL]

Love it or hate it, A.I is already part of how things are being made and maybe I’ll catch some heat for saying that.

Even so, I decided to build a platform for UEFN. This video shows 4 of the 17 tools it will offer
In the video:
• thumbnail generation
• thumbnail editing
• camera control
• layer decomposition

The idea is simple: control the entire thumbnail creation process from start to finish via prompt.

This is not about replacing creativity, It is about increasing speed, control, and possibilities for people who actually know how to create

This is one of the biggest Discover changes we’ve seen.

Epic is:
• Reducing spam and duplicate islands
• Downranking games that are too similar to existing ones
• Adding stricter pre-checks for thumbnails and originality
• Cleaning up Discover so games only show in relevant rows
• Standardizing genres with dedicated rows
• Increasing visibility for fun, original experiences
• Making Discover more dynamic and regularly refreshed

This is a shift toward quality over volume.
