Fortnite creators can now build AI characters

Epic Games is empowering Fortnite creators with a new 'conversations' tool, enabling the development of AI-powered characters for interactive gameplay. This feature moves beyond pre-scripted dialogue trees, allowing Non-Player Characters (NPCs) to engage in unscripted conversations and interactions with players, acting as quest givers or narrators. Creators can define character personalities, knowledge, and behaviors through simple prompts and select appropriate voices, enhancing the immersive experience within Fortnite islands. This advancement promises more dynamic and engaging player interactions.
