Fortnite Physics Update Release Window Revealed
Earlier, Epic Games confirmed that a new physics-based system would be available for UEFN creators within Fortnite. Renowned leaker @HYPEX shared a post on X suggesting that this new update would be available this summer. Another reputed leaker, @ShiinaBR, shared more insight on it, confirming that the Fortnite Physics update would indeed be released in the July-September window.
What’s Coming with Fortnite Physics Update?
In their post, Epic mentioned, “Creators can now publish their UEFN Physics based games into Fortnite. With General Physics, players can push, topple, hit, and move objects – unlocking emergent, physics-driven gameplay.” This means creators now have even more tools to build interactive experiences. Moreover, this new update will be available on platforms, giving more freedom to all creators.
Fortnite has changed its gameplay mechanics before—remember when swimming, sprinting, and mantling were introduced in Chapter 3 Season 2? Each one added something fresh. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 also introduced four new movement features: Ledge Jump, Roll Landing, Wall Kick, and Wall Scramble. And that shows that Epic is not hesitant about a new addition or change. But this new physics system feels like a much bigger leap. It’s not just about movement anymore—it’s about how the world around you reacts.
Epic hasn’t officially confirmed anything yet, but the sources behind this leak have a solid track record. So if things go as expected, Fortnite players are in for one of the biggest gameplay shifts yet this summer. Keep an eye out—this update could seriously shake things up.
