Epic developers were answering the questions of Fortnite fans in a\u00a0Reddit AMA post\u00a0yesterday. One fan asked if a respawn mechanic would be introduced to Fortnite\u2014and Epic producer RZElive gave a pretty surprising answer. \"We've been considering this mechanic for a while and have been exploring it,\" RZElive said. \"[We] want to make sure we give it the time it needs and fully understand its impact on the game as a whole. Look for further updates during season eight.\" Although it doesn't sound like a respawn mechanic will be introduced to Fortnite in the immediate future, it's interesting to learn that Epic has at least been discussing and exploring the option. Related: Fortnite\u2019s X-4 Stormwing planes will be removed from the game at the start of season 8 Of course, smash-hit battle royale game Apex\u00a0Legends features a respawn mechanic that allows you to revive any teammates who have died in battle\u2014so Epic could be interested in implementing a similar mechanic as a way to entice Apex players to return to Fortnite. RZElive said to look for further updates on a potential respawn mechanic \"during season eight,\" which likely means that Epic won't introduce a massive change like this at the start of the season. Season eight will begin on Feb. 28\u2014so more information on this topic might become available in March or April.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/17143933\/fortnite-1920x1080-wallpaper-supply-drop-816x459-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102686"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/917"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/80819"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102686"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=102686"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=102686"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=102686"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=102686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
