fyi you can play fortnite in a single gpu passthrough win10 vm on linux if you configure your vm to hide the hypervisor status.

Yes but then they'd be playing Fortnite

BattlEye still will detect virtualization. At least on intel.

maybe, i have amd.

for ref i used this: https://superuser.com/questions/1387935/hiding-virtual-machine-status-from-guest-operating-system

but i can't seem to find any posts saying hiding vm doesn't work with intel and multiple posts about hiding vm status with intel specific instructions on a quick ddg search so you might want to try again.
