UEFN is a tool that enables the implementation of the Unreal Engine, a game engine developed by Epic Games, on the Fortnite base. It is said to be a metaverse version of Fortnite, and individuals as well as companies are creating content to reach gamers.
While it is easy to start development using UEFN, it also requires a certain level of expertise to implement the game design you have in mind because of its high degree of freedom.

Osaka e-Games High School, which will open in April 2022 as a correspondence high school support school, will offer a wide range of courses for students, including courses for players and coaches of the professional e-sports team "Team IBIS (@TeamIBIS_ )" and "CR Gaming School (@CrazyRaccoonGS )" & "CR Gaming School (@CrazyRaccoonGS ) & CR Gaming School (@CrazyRaccoonGS )". quot; certified coaches, and the "eGames Course" for casual gaming and distribution.
