Hello Creators!

This update brings a new search function in Discover, more weapons and items, changes to systems such as player movement and vehicle speed, and more!
The v28.00 update also gives early access to some great new camera devices! Early Access means we’ll have an opportunity for you to try out a feature that’s still under development. Our aim is to put exciting new features into your hands as soon as the device’s core functionality can be used effectively.
There’s so much more to see and do! Be sure to check out the blog at https://create.fortnite.com/news/fortnite-ecosys...

Due to an issue, Islands created in UEFN fail to matchmake. We’re investigating a fix for this and will provide an update when it’s resolved.

Hi everyone!

We'll be postponing this AMA until the new year to give creators more time to work with the tools. The team is eager to hear your thoughts and answer your questions!

In the meantime, we'll be leaving the forum thread open as an ongoing thread for you to ask questions and get answers directly from the Patchwork developers.

To enhance the Discover experience, we are experimenting with a new variable in the algorithm that populates the ‘New,’ ‘Updated,’ and ‘Trending’ rows. This new variable will prioritize islands with thumbnails that follow our best practices — linked here Thumbnail Image Guidelines for Discover. Please make sure that your thumbnails align with our recommended specifications to optimize their visual appeal and overall effectiveness.
