Fortnite Battle Royale

Fortnite: Battle Royale's next update is expected tomorrow, 10 April 2019, and we're talking about the same update that will bring Epic's version of Apex Legends' respawn system - the Reboot Van. However, it will be larger than usual.

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and that's exactly what Epic Games will be doing with Apex Legends' respawn mechanic. Fortnite's version thereof is called the Reboot Van and it's coming in next week's update

Epic's latest content update for Fortnite is introducing a brand new weapon named Boom Bow and a limited time mode Sniper Shootout. The update also brings some new items to Fortnite Creative and Save the World and fixes a couple of bugs.

Even though the announcement of Borderlands 3 featured much more than we bargained for, or much less depending on how you look at things, the reaction to Gearbox's statement that it won't have battle royale was nothing short of priceless.

Although the date of Fortnite World Cup was announced earlier, Epic Games have now announced the official rules for the competition. So, the first week of Online Opens will kick off on 13 April 2019 with Solos, while Duos come in week two.

Fortnite's latest update is now live on all platforms and it brings the new limited time mode named Floor is Lava. As the name already suggests, players will have to hold the high ground and avoid lava to become the last man standing.

As announced in Fortnite's in-game splash screens, Epic's next mode for the popular battle royale is called The Floor is Lava LTM, the dev's take of the seemingly globally universal children's game of the same name, with a firepower twist.

Although competitions were so far mostly reserved for the Battle Royale part of Fortnite, Epic Games have now announced a competition in Fortnite Creative, with the winning submission winning an in-game spot as a limited time mode.

According to Epic CEO Tim Sweeney, Fortnite gained an Apex Legends worth of players since Respawn's battle royale launched a month ago. Sweeney said that their battle royale king should soon hit another milestone - 250 million players.

Unreal Engine 4 is seriously blurring the lines between game development and actual cinematography as Epic once again dazzled the GDC crowd with a real-time ray tracing demo made by Goodbye Kansas and Deep Forest Films called 'Troll'.
