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 ...

Fortnite 's Chapter 3 spared no expense when it came to new mechanics. From sliding to swinging like Spider-Man, the game feels fresh. Starting with sliding, mobility feels so much better than it had previously, with scaling down cliffs being much easier and faster to do. There are also some new trees scattered around Fortnite 's island that can be broken down by the player and rather than poofing out of thin air when destroyed, realistically fall over as logs that can be moved and even deal som...

For consoles, this is also a huge boon given the PS5 uses AMD graphics cards and the Switch runs Nvidia. On the player’s end, no matter what GPU they run this change decreases the stress on the card, as upscaling is a lot less demanding than fully rendering buildings and landscapes in a higher resolution. Fortnite has a somewhat simple and stylized art direction, but having better graphical fidelity could mean the lower-end systems could experience higher-quality textures and draw distance, impr...

The Enhanced Holo Twister Assault Rifle is perhaps the best AR in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 for a multitude of reasons.

The biggest boon from Unreal Engine 5 is most likely all development-focused, but it allows for game designers to create ideas like Fortnite 's new smooth Marvel-esque web-slinging more efficiently, leading to better experiences. Already, the new map for Fortnite: Chapter 3 seems to be taking advantage of many of the higher-quality resolutions and open-world possibilities. The game's consistent update strategy and integration of popular IPs require a quick turnover time. The new engine could all...

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.

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 d...
