As **Fortnite ** begins its newest chapter, Epic Games has released a ton of new mechanics, skins, and items to its iconic battle royale, as well as a brand new map. The cinematics for the end of Chapter 2 and the beginning of Chapter 3 also introduced a good amount of new lore for the overarching story of the SLG game news, which may show that Epic is starting to focus more on the game's narrative. From Spider-Man to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the Foundation, there are loads of new skins featured in this Chapter 3 Season 1's battle p

For fans of the X-Men Animated Series from the 90s, there are few X heroes that are more iconic than Jubilee. This is partly because the show's events are often shown from her perspective, including the first episode, which tells the story of how she came to join the team. In the comics, Jubilee has gone from being a teenaged troublemaker to one of the X-Men's most reliable teammates, as well as the mother of Shogo, a baby who can transform into a dragon while in Avalon. In Fortnite , her iconic yellow trench coat and neon pink sunglasses would make for a distinctly perfect design for any X-Men fan with a nostalgia for the 90s. Her mutant power, which allows her to create multicolored sparks, could also make for some fun accompanying emo

Vi seems to be an even more in-depth alternative Drift skin with her open-faced fox helm, long flawing paw cape, and thigh boots. She also came with an alternate style of icy blue that changed her outfit, and the Crooked Claw pickaxe and Foxbow Quiver back bling. She is also one of the few reactive skins, meaning her outfit actually gives off light and glows in certain locations. There is no saying if this set will appear in the shop again, but if it does, it will most likely cost players a small

This season's battle pass is especially huge, with a ton of new skins, gliders, loading screens, and pickaxes being included. Spider-Man is the most prominent character featured in the pass, with the skin having unlockable suits and styles. The skin includes the default red and blue fit for Peter Parker but also includes the white and black Future Foundation suit and the black symbiote suit. Gears of War 's Marcus Fenix and Cait Diaz were both teased in the trailer for Chapter 3's battle pass, so they may be included later on as the season contin

Piotr Rasputin, whose mutant name is Colossus, is a longtime favorite amongst X-Men fans. Having joined the team in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (the same issue that introduced Wolverine, Storm, and Nightcrawler) in 1975, Colossus has supported the X-Men through some of their biggest stories throughout the years and continues to be a major asset to the team. Colossus is one of the more high-profile members of the X-Men, having appeared in several of the live-action films, including a major role in Deadpool and its sequel. Colossus has also been playable in several video games, including being a launch character in Marvel Contest of Champions . His original exclusion from the roster of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 (despite being featured in the game's story) __ even caused enough fan upset that Koei Tecmo quickly announced that Colossus would join Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3's roster as post-launch

Developers like Bioware are moving toward Unreal , and this feature allows multiple developers to work on different parts of the map without overwriting each other’s work, but the big change player-side will be load time improvements and better graphical capabilities. Since landscape destruction is a large part of Fortnite , changes to the map might be able to be saved to a server and only called when necessary, saving processing power and improving multiplayer performance. Loading smaller areas might also mean that draw distances actually improve, as the game would no longer need to hide as much scenery behind h

While this weapon does rely strictly on close-quarter-combat, it’s still a decent enough weapon to hold as a backup gun, but it shouldn’t be used for the majority of engagements, especially when such powerful melee weapons will negate the effects of a slow-firing and hard-hitting shot

Fortnite already has optimization for players that have lower-end PCs and regular consoles. Still, for players that want to get into the nitty-gritty of frames and get more competitive, Unreal Engine 5 will be able to take full advantage of more powerful bui

The graphical rendering in Unreal 5 allows the game to run on a more versatile set of PCs than before. Even players who already have a PC that can run Fortnite will benefit from the upgrades to how Unreal Engine 5 works with GPUs. The new engine improves over Unreal Engine 4 by working with both AMD and Nvidia GPUs to use temporal super-resolution, which upscales 1080p pictures into high-fidelity 4k - meaning the Switch version of Fortnite could use Nintendo's new 4k-supported dock and rumored revis

Often referred to as the heart of the X-Men, Kitty would make a fantastic addition to Fortnite's roster of playable heroes. Kitty also had a romantic relationship with Peter Parker in the Marvel Ultimate Universe and could team up with him once again since Spider-Man recently joined Fortnite . Also, since Kitty rarely travels without her trusty dragon, Lockheed, it could be the perfect opportunity for Epic Games to make an accompanying pet for the h
