Nope, Steam Deck can't do Fortnite since Epic Games said no support for it on SteamOS/Linux.

Absolutely, the Steam Deck can run Fortnite! Since the Steam Deck operates like a portable PC, it can handle Fortnite as long as you download it through the Epic Games Store, which is accessible on the Steam Deck. Just make sure you've got a good internet connection for a smooth gaming experience.
