I have had enough with Microsoft. Time to move to Linux. As some of you might know, Fortnite does not run on Linux, at least for now. Maybe this is the wrong place to ask, but what would you play instead on Linux? Surprise me!
Ps. Epic Games, you can do better and you know it
I used to play so much Xonotic. I haven’t played much since they changed their name from Nexuiz, though.
Yeah, with this windows 11 crap, I’m really wishing I could play Fortnite elsewhere. I think switch supports mouse and keyboard, right? 😂
I hear it doesn’t play very well. A Ps5 would I guess?
My kid has a good time with Fortnite on the switch. I’ll see. If I get around to installing win11 soon then I’ll stay on PC.
Apex Legends maybe?
Unfortunately no: https://www.protondb.com/app/1172470
It used to at some point.
Just googling a bit here, it seems Fortnight on Linux can be done, though it’s maybe a bit complex.
That unfortunately seems like an AI generated hallucination. I’m guessing some of those instructions maybe used to work but they won’t anymore. The consensus seems to be that the kernel level anti cheat will not allow the game to start, and if that is circumvented, you risk a permanent ban on your account.
I haven’t tried. But this just seems like an autogenerated article to me. Which is sad even if it isn’t but that’s the way things are in 2025.
Oh. Well shit. Thanks for pointing that out.
