How to Download Fortnite on Steam Deck
Okay, so downloading Fortnite directly on Steam Deck isn't gonna happen since Fortnite isn't on Steam. But don't lose hope! You still can play it by using the Steam Deck's desktop mode. Just switch over to desktop mode, head to the Epic Games Store, download their launcher, and install Fortnite from there. It's a bit of a workaround, but it'll get you back to those victory royales in no time!

No official Steam version for Fortnite. Install Epic Games Launcher via Lutris or Heroic Games Launcher to get it on your Steam Deck.
Epic Games hasn't officially released Fortnite on Steam, but you can still play it on your Steam Deck! Install the Epic Games Store through a third-party launcher like Heroic Games Launcher or Lutris, then download Fortnite from there. Happy gaming!
Nope, you can't. Fortnite's not on Steam, so it's a no-go for direct download on the Steam Deck.
Just FYI, Fortnite isn't available on Steam, so technically you can't download it directly on Steam Deck. But, there's a nifty trick! Use the desktop mode to access the Epic Games Store and download Fortnite just like you would on a regular PC. A little extra step but totally worth it for Fortnite fans.
