Fortnite just got a lot more intense.

No new download, no separate launcher, just search and play.

What Is Bodycam UEFN?
Bodycam was originally a slow-paced, realism-heavy PC shooter from Reissad Studio, known for its unsettling body-cam perspective and punishing close-quarters gunfights. Now, Nazara Technologies has partnered with UEFN creator Virstate and Reissad Studio itself to bring an authorized adaptation to Fortnite — free-to-play, and accessible to anyone with the base game, whether on PC, console, or mobile.
How to Play Bodycam in Fortnite
Getting into the island takes seconds:
- Open Fortnite and head to the Discover tab.
- Search “Bodycam” directly, or
- Enter the island code 9784-3946-5466.
That’s it — no extra installs required.

Why This Matters
Bringing Bodycam into Fortnite isn’t just a crossover gimmick — it’s part of a bigger trend of licensed IPs using UEFN to build standalone experiences inside Fortnite’s massive player base. As detailed on Wikipedia’s page on Unreal Editor for Fortnite, UEFN lets creators build fully custom games using Unreal Engine tools within Fortnite’s ecosystem, which is exactly the kind of flexibility that made this realistic-shooter crossover possible.
