Fortnite on Windows 11

Hi! I'm using Heroic as my main launcher for Epic Games and I'm wondering if Fortnite will work if Epic Games is not installed on my PC at all? I have a really slow connection at home so it would take me a day to download the game and test it out, which is why I'm hoping someone here knows the answer. Thank you!

Yup, works fine Note that you can also import your existing install (if you have one), you don't need to re-download the whole thing

Thank you! Is there a list of games that work normally without Epic Games installed at all? I wanted to play Borderlands 3 with a friend the other day, I'm on Steam, he's on Heroic, and could not play until he installed Epic Games.

Assuming they're on the latest Heroic version, BL3 should work fine (it looks for a registry key the EGL creates, for no reason might I add) (if it doesn't work, log files would be great; they're probably a pain to get to on Windows though)
