Importing Fortnite Islands Into UEFN

You can import an existing Fortnite island into Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) to upgrade the look and feel of your experience with the tools and editing power of UEFN.

You can also push the boundaries of your island design by adding Verse devices and functionalities not available in Creative.

Import a Fortnite Island

Player data will not transfer from your Creative island to a UEFN project. If you revert your island back to its Creative state, your player data is retained.

Importing a Fortnite island into UEFN creates a fork in the editing access for a project. Once converted to UEFN, a Fortnite island project can only be edited within UEFN, using UEFN tools and features.

Whether you create islands in Fortnite or in UEFN, all of the islands you create show in both the UEFN project menu and the Fortnite island menu. Projects created in UEFN have the Unreal Engine icon next to the project in the menu in Fortnite.
