Epic Games is the force behind the massively popular Fortnite: Battle Royale, other hit games like Gears of War, and also Unreal Engine, which is a game engine that has powered hundreds of games from a huge variety of other developers. Epic also has an online store and game launcher that's similar to Steam. If you want to play with your friends in Epic titles like Fortnite, across different platforms like PC, mobile, and consoles, then you need to use the Epic Games launcher. The launcher allows you to add friends on Epic Games, and then play with them on the platform of your choice. How to Add a Friend FortniteThere are two ways to add friends on Epic Games. One requires you to know your friend's display name, which is the name you see when you play games together, or the email address they use with Epic Games. The other requires you to tie your Epic Games account to another social media account or gaming service. The first method that we'll cover requires you to know your friend's display name or email address. If you don't know their display name or email address, you'll have to find it out before you can use this method. There is no way to search for friends with the Epic Games launcher, so you'll actually have to ask your friend for their display name before you can add them. You can also enter their email address. If you enter the email that your friend used when they signed up, they'll get a friend request. If they used a different email, you'll have to ask what it is before you can send a friend request.

How to Add Friends to Epic Games From Facebook and SteamThe other way to add friends on Epic Games is to connect your Epic Games account to another service. This is a great method if you have a lot of friends on other services that also use Epic Games. It's also a good method if you aren't sure what a friend's display name or email address is, because you don't have to waste time asking and waiting for them to respond. The services that Epic Games allows you to connect to are Facebook and Steam. To accomplish this, you'll need to know your Facebook or Steam login information, and you'll need to give Epic Games permission to connect to your Facebook or Steam account.
