How to Add Fortnite on Steam?

Last updated
Ever wondered if you can add Fortnite, the epic battle royale game, to your Steam library? Well, let’s dive into that question today!
Can we actually add Fortnite to Steam? That’s what we’re about to explore. So, grab your pickaxes, and let’s get started!
Can You Add Fortnite to Steam?
Short answer: Yes, you can! But it’s not as straightforward as adding games that are directly available on Steam.
Since Fortnite is developed and published by Epic Games, it primarily lives on the Epic Games Store. However, with a little workaround, you can have it appear in your Steam library. This doesn’t mean you’re buying or downloading the game from Steam, but rather just linking it to your Steam account for ease of access.
Step-by-Step Guide to Adding Fortnite to Steam
First, you’ll need to have both Steam and the Epic Games Launcher installed on your computer. Once you have both, open Steam and navigate to the bottom left corner where you’ll see a ‘+ Add a Game’ button. Click on it and select ‘Add a Non-Steam Game.’
A list of programs on your computer will pop up. If you don’t see Fortnite or the Epic Games Launcher, click on ‘Browse’ and navigate to where the Epic Games Launcher is installed. Select the launcher, add it, and voilà! You’ve successfully added Fortnite (through the Epic Games Launcher) to your Steam library.
