Is RL still on Unreal 3? I know it was when it launched, but I hope this doesn’t completely break compatibility with the existing Steam Workshop content
Yeah, Psyonix actually did a reasonable job still supporting it for folks who bought it on Steam. If Sweeney didn’t have a stick so far up his ass about the value of other stores, it probably would continue too
Fortnite went from Unreal 4 to 5. They’re quite similar systems but Unreal changed pretty fundamentally between 3 and 4, so this is a big leap. We’re talking about an engine that was built in 2006. I’m sure Psyonix has the internal support required to port it, but there’s a lot more than a visual upgrade involved.

The workshop still works? I would’ve expected them to drop it when epic bought them

Wow that’s nuts, I wonder if the new version keeps it 😬 or if it’ll be full exclusive
So far all updates made it to Steam. The engine update will likely be barely noticeable. Wasn’t when Fortnite did it.
