World's First Fully Automatic Fortnite Global Leaderboard

Jan 19, 2026 / Written By Hannes Van der Haegen

At Team Unite, we've always believed that Fortnite Creative (now UEFN) has massive untapped potential for real, community-driven esports. But for years, one major roadblock stood in the way: Epic Games simply didn't provide native tools for seamless, real-time score tracking, automatic submissions, and ironclad anti-cheat in custom experiences.

 

We waited. We requested features. Eventually, we stopped waiting and took it into our own hands.

 

Today, in January 2026, we're proud to announce the launch of the world's first fully automatic Fortnite Global Leaderboard, a custom-built solution developed in partnership with DayZero for W Gamer Denmark's Season 2.

 

This isn't just another map or tournament. It's a proof-of-concept for cheat-proof, automated competitive gaming inside Fortnite, and it's live right now.

 

The Challenge: Crowning Denmark's Best Gamer, Fairly

 

W Gamer Denmark is on a mission to find the absolute best gamer in the country each season. For Season 2 (currently underway with Fortnite as Week 2's live game), they needed a high-stakes, skill-based competition that felt fair, transparent, and modern.

We delivered exactly that with a bespoke UEFN island featuring four distinct, high-skill challenges:

 

Precision Parkour — Test speed, control, and movement mastery under tight timing constraints.

High-Score Aim Trainer — Pure mechanical skill: rack up the highest score possible in intense aiming drills.

Creative Trickshot Arenas — Combine flair, creativity, and pinpoint accuracy for jaw-dropping shots.

Intense Endgame Survival — Simulate high-pressure late-game scenarios where clutch decisions separate winners from the rest.

 

Your performance across all four sections generates a combined score — and here's the game-changer: that score is automatically submitted to a third-party leaderboard in real time.

No screenshots. No manual uploads. No opportunity for cheating or disputes.

 

Scores hit the third-party website instantly, powering a live, verifiable global leaderboard.

 

Why This Matters for the Future of Fortnite Competitive? Well this project is more than a Danish competition, it's a blueprint:

Scalable community tournaments with instant rankings

Brand activations that feel native and engaging

Regional/national ladders that reward consistent skill

Cheat-resistant experiences in an era where fair play is paramount

 

By building our own automation layer (while still fully compliant with Epic's UEFN guidelines), we've shown what's possible when creators stop waiting for permission and start engineering solutions.

 

Huge credit to the DayZero team for the vision and flawless collaboration and to the Danish Fortnite community for grinding and pushing the leaderboard right now.
