Epic Games is taking its learnings from Fortnite and making them available for free in the form of Epic Online Services for game devs.
Epic Games learned a lot about creating online services with the launch of Fortnite, the enormously successful battle royale game with 250 million users. And now it is giving away those online services to game developers for free to operate and scale games across any engine, store, and platform using a single Epic Online Services software development kit (SDK)..
Originally built for Fortnite, Epic Online Services have been battle-tested by nearly 250 million players and are a suite of robust solutions for developers to provide players with a unified social experience across platforms.
Although they were announced in December, today marks the first availability of services for developers.
