The new (and vibe coded) Epic Games Launcher

title is sensationalized, but i think the real gem of information is hidden down the page:

Fortnite is coming to Linux on the Launcher

To bring Fortnite to Linux, we are rebuilding Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) and working with distro maintainers on security requirements. Once it’s working with a critical mass of distro maintainers, we’ll bring Fortnite to Linux via the Epic Games Launcher.

We’ll also make these improvements available to other developers so they can bring their games to Linux players. For more info on our work to expand EAC support across Linux, check out the tech blog we published today.

Nice lightweight Tauri (Rust + WebView) stack and Linux support as bonus :)

Epic Games launcher has been notoriously glitchy on my PC. Nice refinement!

Shit company with a one hit wonder in fortnite. The meta of games. Such a tonedeaf creation is unsurprising.
