Earlier this December, **Fortnite ** upgraded its engine to Unreal Engine 5 from 4. Unreal Engine 4 already had ray tracing and a complex particle effect system that helped create polished graphics for Fortnite , but the upgrade has important features that game developers outside of Epic Games are also taking advantage of. The Matrix Awakens and Senusa’s Saga: Hellblade II were both shown off at The Game Awards and showcase the high level of detail games can achieve with the new eng
Rogue and Gambit have a lot in common. Apart from their enduring romantic love for each other, both are roguish heroes with suave attitudes and dangerous powers. They are also both characters that owe a lot of their popularity to the 90s X-Men animated series. Gambit, whose iconic look has made playable appearances in games like Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 & 3 _ , would make for an excellent addition to _Fortnite, with his energy staff also included as a pickaxe skin. Rogue, who is arguably the more popular of the two, having been a main character in the live-action X-Men films, hasn't been playable in nearly as many games as Gambit but is still an indispensable member of the team that many fans would love to

GLOW was an extraordinary Legendary skin that was part of what proved to be one of the best Fortnite collabs ever as players with Samsung mobile phones attained the skin completely for free.

Torin is one of the more recent Legendary skins that players obtained through the Battle Pass. Fans believed she could have been inspired by the character Anna from Frozen with her braids and purple c
Unreal is owned now by Epic Games, so this change doesn’t seem particularly surprising, but it’s still important nonetheless, as Fortnite: Chapter 3 runs entirely on the upgrade. The company is heavily marketing the improvements to large open-world games and detail-oriented realism with revisions of the lighting system and world generation. Fortnite still being one of the most played free-to-play games means that the engine has to run on high-end systems and low, so the game running flawlessly despite varying PC and console builds is import
The graphical rendering in Unreal 5 allows the game to run on a more versatile set of PCs than before. Even players who already have a PC that can run Fortnite will benefit from the upgrades to how Unreal Engine 5 works with GPUs. The new engine improves over Unreal Engine 4 by working with both AMD and Nvidia GPUs to use temporal super-resolution, which upscales 1080p pictures into high-fidelity 4k - meaning the Switch version of Fortnite could use Nintendo's new 4k-supported dock and rumored revis

As the first member of the X-Men and its longest-serving member, Cyclops has gone from being a scared student who couldn't control his mutant ability, to a confidant leader and master tactician. Cyclops has spent his life fighting tirelessly for mutant kind, with many regarding him as the ultimate X-
In the PS5 tech demos, Unreal Engine 5 has a unique way of generating worlds that’s different from other engines - most of the time, when games load maps, they have to load a full section to a user’s RAM and then process where the character is on that map to render their surroundings. This can cause pop-in and generally make load times slower as the system has to keep the world loaded but also delete it entirely when moving to a different section of the level. The new world partition system now being utilized in games allow developers to create larger worlds that load procedurally based on what the player can see. All this is done by the engine itself and doesn’t incur a huge performance dip when consistently loading these smaller ar
