<p>Fittingly, the first game to be created using Epic&#8217;s new graphics engine (Unreal Engine 4) will be made by Epic, as well. <em>Fortnite</em> will be a PC exclusive survival/shooter. Taking place during a zombie apocalypse, players will have to survive by cooperating to scavenge for materials and build a fortress during the day, By night, they&#8217;ll have to fend off the undead in their forts.</p>

<p><em>Fortnite </em>will feature a stylized art style in the vein of Pixar or Dreamworks cartoons, a departure from what most people would usually expect from the developer. Epic&#8217;s design director, Cliff<span style="color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 21px;"> </span><span style="color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 21px;">Bleszinski,</span> expressed the company&#8217;s desire to try something new, saying in a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX1Y-smM_nU">video interview with X-Play</a>:</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;When we first set out to build <em>Fortnite</em>, we wanted to build a game people would look at and say &#8216;Epic made that?&#8217;&#8230;we&#8217;ve kind of been pigeonholed into a kind of corner where people think we&#8217;re making these dude-bro type of games and <em>Fortnite</em> kind of breaks out of that.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Due to their unveiling of many new details during this year&#8217;s Comic-Con in San Diego, a lot of buzz is now surrounding this new project. Expect it to be one of the most sought-after games announced this year. No details yet on a release window.</p>
