I know there is Grapejuice. But, is there a way to get Epic Launcher on Gentoo.
If not, is there NVIDIA GeForce Now?

There is no Fortnite client for any Linux distro.

There is also no official (there are a couple of unofficial electron-based ones on github) nVidia Geforce NOW clients for any Linux distro (well unless you count Android); however, it does work with chrome and edge web browsers: https://play.geforcenow.com/mall/#/layout/games .

Grapejuice is a compatibility layer that allows you to run the Windows version of the League of Legends game on Linux, including Gentoo. However, Epic Games Launcher and NVIDIA GeForce Now are not currently supported on Linux.

There are some third-party methods to try and get the Epic Games Launcher to work on Linux, such as using Wine or PlayOnLinux, but results may vary and it is not officially supported. As for NVIDIA GeForce Now, it is a cloud gaming service that runs on NVIDIA's servers, and there is no Linux client available at this time.

If you need to run Windows-only applications or games on Linux, you may want to consider using a virtual machine or dual-booting your system with Windows. However, keep in mind that these methods require additional resources and setup, and may not provide the same level of performance as running the application or game natively on Windows.
