@SoftEngineer Yep. For decades, developers have used computer tools to make games for computers. And now that computer tools are finally getting really good, they want developers to forego the good new tools and stick with the old worse tools.

[Ted Timmins @JustTeddii]

Many months ago we set out to take Fortnite back to its Battle Royale roots - where every match would feel different, to give the game a quality of life update, and respect what has made Fortnite, Fortnite. I’m left both in awe and hugely proud of this team, and while the new Chapter is only just beginning - it’s great to start it by seeing such positivity from the community. Thank you for the feedback, we’re working our way through all of it - here’s to the future 🫡 🤝

[Eric Williamson @eric_w]

What did you name your Sidekick?

Ever since Chapter 1 we had a dream for these to come to life. We love them, and we hope you love them too.

[Fortnite @Fortnite]

Great journeys deserve great company. Fortnite Sidekicks are here!! 🥹

We will return Fortnite to the US iOS App Store next week.

Epic puts forth a peace proposal: If Apple extends the court's friction-free, Apple-tax-free framework worldwide, we'll return Fortnite to the App Store worldwide and drop current and future litigation on the topic.
