UI 101: Getting Started with Unreal Motion Graphics for UEFN | Unreal Fest Orlando 2025
You’re building your game in Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), and now it’s time to build your user interface, but you’re dreading the hundreds of lines of Verse UI code you’ll have to eventually write and manage.

Attendees will walk away with an understanding of how to get started in UMG, how Viewmodels enable you to display custom UI on devices, and how to utilize different devices to showcase the UI that you want in your game.
