Two AAA veterans with Far Cry, Assassin’s Creed, and Rainbow Six Siege on their résumés built their own IP in Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN). Here’s how they did it. Rodolphe Recca and Jonathan “Rax” Gauvin join Creating in Fortnite to walk through The Last Ascent from first concept to playable island—how they ideated and iterated, why they chose UEFN and Fortnite to launch their own IP, and what it took to ship it using UEFN and Verse.

Your in-island transaction analytics in Creator Portal tell you more than how much you earned. Conversion rate, ARPDAU, ARPPU, purchases per buyer, and average transaction value all move together, and reading them together can help you diagnose whether an offer is underperforming or has room to grow. In this livestream, we’ll walk through each chart in Creator Portal: what the metric actually measures, how to segment and filter by island and offer, why spikes and dips happen, and what to change in your island in response to those data points. Tune in on September 8 at 2 PM ET for our Creating in Fortnite livestream with Carson Taylor, John Raff, and Jeremy Mingo from Epic Games.
