Where is the Empty World?

Following the tutorial for UEFN, at the Landscaping Tools chapter, the video uses an “Empty Level” which is visible in the New Level selection window.
However in my UEFN (Version: 5.1.1-24757023+++Fortnite+Release-24.01) “New Level” window, there is no such map.
Now I guess I can go into any level and delete everything, but I figured I’d let you know.

Island template → Blank

You need to click on Select Island Templates and the second one along on the top row says Blank. That is now the Empty Level you now need since the Tutorial was released as they have made some updates.

Hope that helps.

They made a note in the “Your First Hour in UEFN” Landscaping Tools chapter that the Empty Level was removed, and to go in and manually delete the items in the barebones one they suggest. It’s a bit of a pain, but at least it’s now acknowledged in the tutorial. Still waiting on the ability to use the Niagara VFX described later in that tutorial. It blacklists those assets currently when uploading and testing in Fortnite.
