Fortnite uses both EAC and BattleEye, so it really isn’t that easy to integrate with their custom solution. Also, they have to test it to make sure no bugs are introduced. Afterall, it’s a multi-billion USD game.
But as we know, they really don’t care, so even if it was only a day of development time, they wouldn’t do it.
Just as a heads up, while they did drop the Linux client, unless it’s been changed very recently you can just use the Windows version through Proton/WINE and play that way.
Which isn’t an excuse for what they’ve done, I only mention it in case you or someone else didn’t already know.
I highly doubt they’ll find any bugs even if they did test it. Even if there were bugs, most likely Valve + the community would be the one’s patching it.
Epic doesn’t want to try because they have a stick very deep up their ass.
Tim Sweeney is a fuckin retard.
All it takes is one click in the EAC SDK to support Valve’s Proton. (┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻
Can we please not belittle the mentally disadvantaged by comparing them to Tim Sweeny?

At this point, they’ve invested more in not supporting Linux. This is after Linux decided to support Fortnite instead.
Sorry what is EAC?
Easy Anti-Cheat, the anti-cheat that’s literally owned by Epic Games.
Thank you kind sir :)
It’s just Tim Slimy being an absolute jackass
You surely need many dev to accomplish this horrendous task…

BattlEye also supports Valve Proton. ◉_◉
That’s as easy as messaging BattlEye to enable it.
I don’t know enough about integrating multiple invasive anti-cheats in a single game, but it’s quite likely they have some custom glue.
The more important part is testing. No one wants to enable something without testing and they don’t care to do any work.
This is a poor excuse, they actively don’t support Linux: rocket league had a Linux version, which was dropped and now Linux players can’t play it

BattlEye is kernel rootkit and is not supported by proton. Guess why.
BattleEye is supported by proton
How? It is kernel-level. There is no windows kernel in proton.
This is how
Thanks
EAC and BattleEye both run a userspace anticheat when used through Proton
