Riot’s Anna Donlon is here to talk about Valorant.
She’s discussing the process of bringing the hyper-competitive shooter to consoles and how using Unreal Engine made that easier.

“It’s time to bring back a new era of interoperability.”
That’s from Ben Grossman — who, I should note, is here to hype Epic’s developer tools like Unreal Editor for Fortnite. Still, I kind of agree with him.

Pizza power.
Epic is giving creators another brand they can build Fortnite experiences around: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Creators will be able to publish their TMNT-themed islands starting in November.

Fortnite creators will eventually be able to make custom weapons and global leaderboards.
Seems like smart additions, especially for games with first-person camera modes. (You’ll be able to make custom weapons for third-person games, too.)

Nearly half a billion.
Epic says it has paid out $479 million to creators since launching its revised creator payout system for creator-made islands in March 2023.
The company also says there have been more than 134,000 islands published with Unreal Editor for Fortnite, which also launched last March.
