About Me
One of the biggest reveals of Chapter 2 Season 8's live event was Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson being shown as the voice actor for the Foundation, a prominent character in Chapter 1 and 2's cinematics. The Foundation is a special skin that can be unlocked separately from the battle pass. There is no way to unlock the titular character, with his release date being February 3, 2022. There seems to be both a helmet and no helmet style for the skin, as w
While the Lumen and Nanite systems integrated into Unreal Engine 5 are more for development than for gamers, it still improves the play experience of Fortnite . One of the defining features of the SLG Game Missions is its continually-changing world map, and the upgrades to lighting and texturing could let the team modify the existing content quicker. On top of also allowing for better dynamic lighting, the new systems allow for larger worlds with consistently high detailing, meaning that expanding the world of Fortnite with events like Winterfest and unique concerts could be easier than e
There hasn't been a proper X-Men game to be released since the 2014 mobile game Uncanny X-Men: The Days of Future Past , and there hasn't been an X-Men game released for consoles since Activision's X-Men: Destiny . Since the new Skydance Marvel game likely isn't an X-Men game and Insomniac's new Wolverine game hasn't been confirmed to feature any other members of the X-Men, fans of the mutant superhero team may be waiting quite some time before they're able to step into the shoes of their favorite mutants in a game that's dedicated towards them. In the meantime, many fans have been trying to find ways to play as their favorite X-Men in various crossover games. While members of the X-Men are playable in several mobile games like Marvel Strike Force and in the Nintendo Switch's Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 , Fortnite might be X-Men fans' best chance of getting to play as their favorite charact
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 some damage. Epic also added a new camping mechanic, which allows the player to use and lay down tents that they can rest in to restore HP or store items. This is a great way to have extra storage in-game, though it costs gold bars to store and take out items from the t
As X-Men team members go, none are more deserving of a spot in Fortnite's roster as Cyclops. Not only does he help define what it is to be a member of the X-Men, but he also has two members of his family already in Fortnite . His son, Cable is playable in Fortnite already, and his wife, Jean Grey, was recently added as Dark Phoenix. Cyclops' optic blast could not only make for a cool emote, but a limited-time visor weapon could allow players to utilize his optic blasts in com
Iceman is one of the original five members of the X-Men team (along with Cyclops, Angel, Beast, and Marvel Girl/Jean Grey), and is one of the team's most powerful members. Bobby Drake has the ability to create ice (which he can use as a weapon or a shield for his body), which would fit in perfectly with Fortnite 's new icy map . As an Omega Level Mutant, Iceman's powers are unmatched in their field, with his ability to create ice being nearly limitless. Unlike the other four original members of the X-Men, Iceman has little respect for authority and uses his own moral compass to guide his actions. While many of his enemies tend to underestimate him due to his jokester personality and devil-may-care attitude, when Iceman feels a cause or mission is important, there is no better hero for the
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
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
