Fortnite Battle Royale UI Design Concept

Independent Work / 2017

Reimagining the UI for new and expert players.

It’s no secret that I am a huge gamer. I always find myself analyzing game interfaces from the perspective of a designer, either finding new design inspiration, or imagining how I might approach it differently.

In this case, Fortnite is an early access game with an interface that needs a little bit of work – as an exercise in game UI design, I wanted to see how I could give it a more modern and clean layout.

Fortnite is a trademark of Epic Games. This concept utilized some of their assets and this work is purely conceptual, created under fair use.
