Unfortunately, the Steam Deck can't run Fortnite directly due to compatibility issues with the anti-cheat software. Your best bet is to install Windows on the device, which some users have done successfully.

Sorry to disappoint, but Fortnite isn't playable on the Steam Deck out of the box. The anti-cheat system doesn't play nice with SteamOS. Maybe try installing Windows on the Deck if you're feeling adventurous!

Nope, the Steam Deck can't run Fortnite natively since it relies on anti-cheat software that's not compatible with SteamOS. You could try installing Windows on the Deck, but that's a whole other adventure!
