Fortnite will make the jump to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the Epic Games battle royale will be available for both consoles the same day they go on sale, as we can read in the game website. We could say that this news does not catch us by surprise, after all, the new consoles will be backward compatible with PS4 and Xbox One. Now, Epic Games has not said anything about whether Fortnite will be optimized for both platforms from the first day.
Epic Games has also announced that Fortnite to switch to Unreal Engine 5 in mid-2021, so this should positively affect the game, especially for the new generation of consoles. Of course, we could say that a change in the graphic style of the game is ruled out. Migration to Unreal Engine 5 will improve graphics performance and quality. So we are not talking about a new Fortnite.
From Epic Games they assure that they intend to enable cross-platform progress between different generations of console and platforms. Additionally, Fortnite will continue to be available on the current generation of consoles.
