No, Fortnite does not work on Linux as of update v41.00 (Chapter 7 Season 3,) which is a damn shame because I would love to play this season on my PC.

If Steam is a monopoly because they dominate the market, I will keep calling Windows a monopoly for as long as game publishers keep unfairly blocking users of other operating systems from playing their games.

Valve has been hit by yet another class action lawsuit in the Netherlands, this time from Consumer Competition Claims (CCC).
The CCC claims that Valve holds a dominant position in the market, estimated at around 85%, and is breaching competition law through so-called "Most Favoured Nation" clauses. They argue that Valveโs 30 percent cut on all game sales is too high and reflects monopolistic behaviour. Dutch consumers have suffered total damages of more than โฌ220 million. Source: GameClaim

Another reason not to give your ID to companies for "age verification." Epic Games also partners with Yoti as well.
โผ๏ธ๐จ BREAKING: Sony PlayStation's age-verification partner Yoti is reporting GrapheneOS users to authorities for using GrapheneOS, due to "past security concerns."

A common argument against supporting Linux users is the relatively small playerbase compared to other platforms. I wonder how many people use ARM Windows devices compared to Linux devices?

Nvidiaโs new RTX Spark laptops and PCs will include anti-cheat support for games like Fortnite, VALORANT, League of Legends, and PUBG. Nvidia is also working with Easy AntiโCheat, BattlEye, Denuvo, and others. Good step forward for Windows on ARM gaming
