This feature is in an experimental state so you can try it out, provide feedback, and see what we are planning. You cannot publish a project that uses persona or its related features at this time.
To use this feature, you need to enable the persona_component in the Experimental Scene Graph features. Then, under Experimental Access, check LLM-Powered Conversation.
Conversations is a set of features designed to create AI-powered characters with personalities and voices that can talk, react, and respond to player actions — and even drive gameplay. With the Prompt Editor, you can define a persona, a character's personality and facts about them, and create complex characters that players can interact with in their games.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
Voice Chat enabled in your Fortnite client. Voice Chat is required for players to converse with persona NPCs.

Create an NPC with a specific persona.
Converse with the NPC persona in game.
Add structured output to your NPC persona to drive gameplay.

You can follow the documentation to Create and Explore a Project to get up and running with the Blank Island Template.
