Went to check my old map with camera shake and everything works fine there. Copied files of camera shake from there and pasted them to a new project - and this old camera shake works.

So it seems like now we have a “new” version that won’t work. During my tests with this new version, a new error flashed for a brief second that I didn’t notice before:
[DisallowedAssetReference] Disallowed reference to /Script/EngineCameras.LegacyCameraShake:EventGraph, Referenced by:Content/CameraShake.uasset (Blueprint), Plugin mount point:/547acd29-4619-9c15-2718-6cac0675bee7., Raw={

I also haven’t been able to get Camera shakes to work correctly for a while, hope they address this
