Creative 2.0 might probably be one of the biggest updates in Fortnite. It is uncertain as to when it is going to arrive, but when it does, it is going to be one of the path-breaking updates for the game. This new mode will introduce new ways for loopers to play the game and bring all their creativity into it.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot of official information on the highly anticipated Fortnite Creative 2.0. Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, stated that the update will arrive in 2022, although that may be months away.

Popular Fortnite leaker HYPEX has come up with a new leak about this new mode. In a tweet, he talks about a new NPC called ‘the Verse’. This article delves more into this latest leak and the various nuances related to Creative 2.0.

Leaks reveal new AI-driven NPCs to be released in Fortnite

As you can read in the above post, HYPEX has found a new feature that is coming alongside Creative 2.0. The ‘Verse NPC’ is going to be a scripted AI which can be placed at any point on the map. They can move, wander, emote, basically anything that a player is capable of doing with their avatar in the game. The movement of the AI can be used to determine whether a certain point is reached, unreachable, canceled, or unsupported.

When a fan asked about supporting live events, HYPEX says that if people get used to this mode, it might be a really great one for good live events!

Starting with the point of view, there’s a high probability that this update will be considerably different from the original. Creative 2.0 might be in the first-person view rather than the traditional third-person view that Fortnite presently uses for everything.
