Fortnite’s new AI NPCs can talk back to you in real time
Epic Games has introduced a new experimental feature in Unreal Editor for Fortnite called Conversations, which allows creators to build AI-powered NPCs capable of real-time, unscripted dialogue. These NPCs can dynamically respond to player input, remember actions, and potentially influence gameplay, utilizing Google's Gemini models for input processing and ElevenLabs for voice synthesis. While currently limited to the editor and subject to strict usage rules, this feature signals a significant shift towards more interactive characters in Fortnite's creative ecosystem.
