رفاق Fortnite يصبحون شخصيات غير لاعبين قابلة للبرمجة، مع النشر في 23 يوليو

Epic says Fortnite Sidekicks are now available as scriptable NPCs in UEFN and Creative, expanding the kinds of creature-based islands creators can build. The company says developers can customize appearance, script behavior with Verse, and animate them.

Publishing starts July 23

The same announcement says islands using Sidekicks will be eligible to publish starting July 23. Epic also says these islands can qualify for a new creature-based Collection page and additional Discover featuring opportunities.

What creators can build

• Monster battlers
• Cozy farming games
• Creature-collection RPGs
• Companion adventure islands

Epic also says creators can bring a player’s own Sidekick into an island, and that Sidekicks have a new reaction system for behaviors such as following, fetching, fleeing, attacking, and reacting to game events. (fortnite.com)
