currently using Win10. i am not upgrading to 11.

once i figure out how to play games like fortnite and other anticheat games on linux, i'm honna switch over so hard.

Not all the anti cheat systems will work in Linux, some vendors will flat out ban you even when you can get the software working.

Anyways Fortnight works if you use the https://lutris.net/ system. Lutris is pretty cool, it's mostly just a frontend that does all the configuration for you. If you create an account, you can almost one click install most of your games.

this answer is copypasted from my original answer to the orher fella that gave you the advice: this is wrong. Epic executives have an unressonable hate against linux, meaning they deny support for fortnite spesifically even rhpugh they can enable it.

no you didn't no fortnite won't work with lutris.

2 years left still. Hopefully by that time Linux gains enough popularity that developers consider supporting it. At the very least Ubuntu.

You can play Fortnite on a potato with Xbox cloud for free.
