In a string of events, Epic Games reloaded with a fresh magazine full of new content for Fortnite. Now expanding the battle royale with three new experiences: Lego Fortnite, Fortnite Festival, and Rocket Racing. Just recently, it was revealed that Lego Fortnite welcomed a bevy of updates. Compiled, we reported on the new Lego Islands & Mechanical Mayhem updates that went live for Lego Fortnite over the past week.
Additionally, Rocket Racing is due for some of that attention too. Similar to UEFN for Fortnite or Lego Islands for Leg0 Fortnite, players are counting the days that Rocket Racing for Fortnite comes with a track editor. In a previous leak, evidence pointed towards an update for the game that would expand creativity for racers playing.
An announcement from Epic Games’ State of Unreal keynote during GDC, it revealed that UEFN (Unreal Engine for Fortnite) is now available for Rocket Racing. You can watch the trailer in the video below:
“Buckle up! Racetrack templates and devices for building Rocket Racing islands are now available for island creators. Can’t wait to start designing and publishing your own racing islands? We’re releasing two brand-new templates for Rocket Racing — the Competitive Race Track and Speed Run Track. This means for the first time ever, you’ll be able to make your own Rocket Racing islands and make them available through Discover to all Fortnite players.
“In the Competitive Race Track Template, you can bring competitive multiplayer races to your Rocket Racing experience. When you use this template, multiple players can race against each other over multiple laps on the same track. The Speed Run Track Template lets you create time trials where players can race for the best possible lap time on a single track with up to 12 other players.”
