Fortnite Zero Build Is Getting A Much-Needed Overhaul This Week

Fortnite Zero Build Is Getting A Much-Needed Overhaul This Week https://ift.tt/OVE8bqh Epic Games is giving the Zero Build version of Fortnite Battle Royale a massive makeover on May 14, with the last major update in Chapter 7 Season 2. Among Epic's many new additions are a new utility slot exclusive to Zero Build, glider re-deploy at any time when jumping off tall objects, and unlimited sprint when your pickaxe is out--and you'll no longer die from fall damage. These are some pretty fundamental changes that are likely to significantly alter the flow of battle in Zero Build. This is the first time since it was first introduced in 2022 that Zero Build is getting its own overhaul completely separate from build mode.

Though it's been nearly a year since that announcement, Ubisoft recently confirmed that the game will not be at its upcoming showcase Ubisoft Forward, stating that the game is "in conception right now."

In a Q&A with producer Jean-Francois Naud and game director Michael McIntyre, Ubisoft said that the remake is in "an early stage" and that players should not expect to hear more about the project this year. Throughout the conversation, the two creatives note that the project is a remake of the game rather than a remaster, with McIntyre saying that games have evolved in the twenty years since its original release. "I do not think a remaster would take enough of those evolutions into account," they say. "I think you need to do a remake in order to truly evolve the game to meet a modern context."

McIntyre also said that Sands Of Time's signature mix of acrobatics, combat, and puzzles are important to the remake's identity. They also said that the team has considered making the Prince's shirt rip more and more over the course of the game, though McIntyre stopped short of confirming it. The director also said that multiple people who are working on the remake were directly inspired to join the game industry by Sands Of Time itself, including one who was studying to be an actuary when they first played it.
