Fortnite Ecosystem v43.00

v43.00 makes the Progression API production-ready for custom quests, introduces Procedural Content Generation (PCG) to help you build bigger worlds faster, and expands MCP in UEFN with new toolsets for profiling, animation, and audio.
Plus, there’s plenty more to explore in this release.

The Progression API is now production-ready
You can now publish islands with custom quest systems, from simple stand-alone quests to layered experiences with multiple objectives.

Procedural Content Generation (PCG) is now available in UEFN
Accelerate worldbuilding with procedural generation in the editor. Automate asset placement to build detailed worlds, like forests, cities, and custom points of interest, without placing every asset by hand. You can also use agents to create and edit PCG graphs through UEFN MCP.

UEFN MCP adds new toolsets :

*** Profiling:** Capture and analyze data from Timing Insights, Verse Insights, Memory Snapshot, and the Spatial Profiler to find and fix performance bottlenecks.
*** Sequencer:** Speed up camera setup, character animation, and sequence editing for cutscenes, storytelling, and gameplay moments.
*** MetaSound:** Import audio files as sound waves, create MetaSounds assets, and configure music, ambience, loops, and one-shot sounds.
*** IK Retargeter:** Retarget existing animations to your own custom characters, including NPCs, with less manual setup.

Also in this release:

  • Health and Damage Pipeline (Experimental) in Verse
  • Gaussian splat import (Experimental) for photoreal real-world scenes
  • USD file import
  • Client and server performance metrics in Creator Portal
  • Mobile profiling on iOS and Android devices
  • Scene Graph performance and memory improvements
  • Chaos outfit and cloth asset creation in UEFN
  • Frenzy Fields prefabs and galleries
  • A new feedback form on the Developer Forums
