Fortnite Chapter 3 Is The First Unreal Engine 5 Game You Can Play

Ever since the demo for Unreal Engine 5 was released in 2020, gamers have been wondering when they can play a game built using the engine’s stunning new graphics capabilities. Sure, there is a tech demo titled The Matrix Awakens that will be released on 9 December, but a demo isn’t technically a full-fledged game.

Turns out, there’s no need to wait, because Fortnite Chapter 3 uses Unreal Engine 5!

Epic Games’ metaverse of a battle royale, with Unreal Engine 5, has introduced new mechanics such as lightning, tornadoes, and log-cutting. The new weather and environmental effects make the game world feel more alive than before, and parts of that can be seen from the trailer for Chapter 3.
