After a long wait and plenty of hype, Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), which is often called Fortnite Creative 2.0 by fans, is out now, and Epic's hugely popular game will never be the same. For those who build their own games and experiences for Fortnite Creative mode, UEFN broadens and deepens the tools they have available by a huge degree.

It also alters the pay structure that creators will use with what Epic is calling Creator Economy 2.0--not to be confused with the aforementioned fan name for UEFN. Meanwhile, players who prefer to play Creative but not build in it themselves will benefit by having access to the coming influx of these projects. Players who have previously just seen Fortnite as a battle royale game may yet discover a whole new world with Creative mode. Here's everything you need to know about UEFN AKA Creative 2.0.

What is Unreal Editor for Fortnite?

Known as UEFN for short, Unreal Editor for Fortnite is a free application available now on the Epic Games Store which seeks to massively improve the tools players have at their disposal for creating new games and experiences within Fortnite Creative mode. Running on Unreal Engine 5 with several of the engine's most touted features, such as the Lumen lighting technology that was introduced with Fortnite Chapter 4 last December, UEFN has been whispered about for months as "Creative 2.0," a name that now proves a bit redundant given Epic's parallel unveiling of Creator Economy 2.0, which we'll get to further down in this article.
