The popular streamer expects the new update to change the game-literally.
The new Fortnite update is set to be released on 20th February, 2020. And if popular Fortnite streamer Ninjas is to be believed, the new update is set to change the game for good.
So what’s the hype about the new Update?
The season 2 of the second chapter was set to be released in December 2019, 2 months after the release of the first season. The release was delayed. The reason is obvious now; fortnite is moving to a new game engine. In a January 24th blog post, Epic games announced that the game would be moving to Unreal’s Chaos Physics system.
“At launch, the goal is to ensure that “Fortnite” still feels like “Fortnite.” Along the way there will be some bumps, so we’re starting tests with a small group of players. We’ll also closely monitor feedback and make improvements over time,” the game developer released in a post.
Ninja’s Prediction for Fortnite Update
It would be fair to say that Ninja has had his fair share of fortnite. The 28-year old streamer has made his fortune primarily from the popular battle royale shooter. Chipping in on the update, this is what he felt.
Dude, it’s gonna change everything,” the streamer said during his live stream. “I have so much speculation, I wonder, man.” “Has a game ever changed the engine it’s on? I’m not talking about a sequel, I’m talking about an actual game.” Ninja further said how he believes the developers want to “reset” the game. He thinks Epic games want to do this to ensure all players are at the same skill level again.
Is Ninja right? Is fortnite headed for a reset, or is it just a simple engine change?
Only time will give us the answer.
