To get Fortnite on your Steam Deck, you'll need to use the desktop mode to download and install the Epic Games Launcher first. Here's a quick rundown: Boot into desktop mode, open the Discover Software Center, search for and install the 'Heroic Games Launcher' (an alternative to the Epic Games Launcher), then launch Heroic, log in to your Epic Games account, and install Fortnite. Switch back to gaming mode and play!

Forget Steam; just use a PC to get Fortnite from the Epic Games Store. Stream it to your Steam Deck with Steam Remote Play. Works like a charm!

Grab the Heroic Games Launcher from the Discover store on your Steam Deck. Add it to Steam, sign into your Epic account, and install Fortnite from there.
