What stops Fortnite

Easy Anti-Cheat and BattlEye

Anti-cheat like this needs to run deep in the system, and that access is not available to a compatibility layer on macOS. This is not a graphics or performance limit, and it is not something Pixel Port can work around.

Who can change this?

Fortnite uses anti-cheat that Epic has chosen not to enable on macOS. Nothing Pixel Port does can change that. This one is genuinely up to Epic, and if they switch Mac support on, it could work overnight.
