Epic Games Considering Introducing Respawn Mechanic to Fortnite: Battle Royale
Epic Games is potentially working on a game-changing mechanic that could be introduced to Fortnite: Battle Royale in the near future, according to recent updates from Epic developers. In a Reddit AMA post, a fan asked if a respawn mechanic would be added to Fortnite, and Epic producer RZElive responded with a surprising answer.
Although it’s not certain that a respawn mechanic will be added to Fortnite right away, it’s intriguing to know that Epic has been discussing and exploring the possibility of implementing such a feature. RZElive mentioned that further updates on this mechanic can be expected during season eight.
Potential Enticement for Apex Legends Players
One possible reason for Epic’s consideration of a respawn mechanic could be the popularity of Apex Legends, which already features this feature. By introducing a similar mechanic, Epic could attract former Apex players to return to Fortnite.
RZElive stated that more information about the potential respawn mechanic could be revealed during season eight, which is set to begin on Feb. 28. It’s likely that any major changes like this would be implemented later in the season, so gamers can expect updates in March or April.
