Case Study: Epic Games brings Ancient Egypt to Fortnite with Preloaded’s Wonders: Pyramids of Giza

Epic Games launches Fortnite island for 14–16-year-olds with Preloaded

The customer, Epic Games, sought to leverage the new Unreal Editor for Fortnite Creative (UEFN) to bring a new, purposeful, and educational experience to its Fortnite platform. Vendor Preloaded was engaged to build this ambitious project, which aimed to transport players to an authentic ancient world for both play and learning.

Preloaded developed Wonders: Pyramids of Giza, a first-of-its-kind island that faithfully recreates the Giza Plateau. The solution utilized UEFN to create a visually stunning and historically accurate open world, incorporating educational storytelling and a formal lesson plan for classrooms. The project was a critical success, winning a Gold Anthem Award, and successfully demonstrated the platform's power for purposes beyond entertainment.
