Epic Games has announced that the following types of improvements are forthcoming in the near future:
• 60 FPS. In a “State of Development” post, Epic Games stated that this exciting feature will be available “on a limited set of high end devices.” Right now, it is undergoing testing so that Epic can ensure that it won’t overheat devices.
• HUD improvements. You probably have noticed that the HUD has already received some minor but helpful tweaks from the most recent update, but Epic Games says this is just the beginning. The developer states that “a big quality of life pass on many of the HUD elements” is still to come.
• Controller support. Epic Games writes, “We haven’t touched on this in some time, but we’re beginning testing on various controller setups as we work to enable support. We’ll give you a status update on these when we get it to a better state.”
• “Major performance improvements.” These will be focused mainly around “Android 7 and some older operating systems.” Memory optimization is another priority in the performance area.
When can we expect these updates to arrive? As of right now, there is no specific date, but Epic Games did mention the phrase “in the near future” for performance updates and “longer term” on the memory optimization.
