Epic is making the same tools that allow Fortnite to have cross-play across all platforms free for developers as a part of Epic Online Services.

Alongside the official announcement and unveiling of the Unreal Engine 5 recently, Epic has revealed that it has finally launched the full version of the services with support for PC, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Mac. Mobile support, for both Android and iOS, will launch at a later date. Future support for Xbox Series X and the PS5 may well be in development, with Fortnite coming to both consoles with cross-play on launch.
