Epic’s Fortnite Creative documentation does not name the font behind the Fortnite logo. It lists Roboto, Burbank and Noto Sans as font choices for the Billboard device, which covers text inside one creation tool. For readable game text of your own, try Roboto or Oswald.

What to know
What Epic’s documentation says
Epic’s documentation for the Billboard device names Roboto, Burbank and Noto Sans as font choices. That tells you the font families for that one device. It does not tell you the exact font files, the styles on every Fortnite screen or the font behind the logo. The Roboto preview on this page is an open-license file and may differ from the one in the game.
Text for a game sign
For a game sign of your own, compare your shortest and longest labels at the size they will be viewed. A condensed heading fits a narrow panel but can be harder to read from a distance. Use a simpler font for instructions, and test numbers and punctuation along with the title. A billboard inside the game may need different proportions from a website heading.
Fonts to compare
MyFonts lists Trade Gothic from Linotype as a commercial family. It suits compact headings and is not one of the three fonts named above. Check the style and the license before you buy. Roboto is free and shares its family name with one of the Billboard choices. Oswald is a different condensed option.
Getting the font
Roboto is free to use, and Trade Gothic is a paid family on MyFonts. We don’t host Burbank.
Questions
Does the Fortnite logo use Burbank?
Epic’s documentation does not say. It lists Burbank as a text option for one device and says nothing about the logo.
Is the Roboto preview the same file the game uses?
That is not known. The preview uses an open-license Roboto file.
