What does this partnership with KitBash3D and Epic Games mean?

The KitBash3D library will be available on Fab.com, Epic’s new forthcoming marketplace. Fab.com will launch later this year; however, an Alpha version of Fab is currently available as a plugin within Epic’s Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN).

In addition to bringing our library to Fab, we will be creating custom KitBash3D x Fortnite Kits that will only be released through the Fab plugin for UEFN.

Fab and the KitBash3D store will operate as two separate entities. You can always buy Kits from the KitBash3D store where you can purchase Kits compatible with multiple 3D software.

There is no set release date for our library on Fab.com yet but we’ll keep you posted as we go. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know.
