Epic Games said they are optimizing Fortnite on new graphics cards and they will stop supporting older graphics cards to focus more on Fortnite:
Fortnite is currently a cross-platform game when gamers can play on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and even iPhone and Android. However, the new PC is the main land for Fortnite to claim to be the king of the Battle Royale game genre. So in order to keep this fertile land, Epic Games always brings the best for PC gamers, especially the optimal ability.
In a post on its official website, Epic Games said it is optimizing Fortnite more on new graphics cards. At the same time, they will stop supporting older graphics cards to focus more on Fortnite:
"Starting from Season 10 onwards, Fortnite's PC version will require a graphics card capable of running Microsoft DirectX 11," the message said. "Although DirectX 11-capable graphics cards are always one of Fortnite's configuration requirements. However, we still provide online support for players with older graphics cards so they can continue playing! "
"However, when Season 10 begins, Fortnite will no longer be compatible with these old graphics cards. This allows us to focus our efforts on development and testing. Aiming to further optimize Fortnite experience for all players. "
If you don't know, Microsoft DirectX 11 is a graphics library built by Microsoft. It provides a development environment for multimedia applications and especially heavy games. Microsoft DirectX 11 version has added and upgraded scripts to help players get a better sound and graphics environment. Because Windows game programming uses Microsoft DirectX 11. So the gamer's PC will need Microsoft DirectX 11 to launch the game.Graphics cards capable of running Microsoft DirectX 11 are quite popular today in most PCs. So this change may not affect much. However, this change still affects gamers who are using old PCs equipped with older graphics cards or use old Windows (Windows XP does not support DirectX 11). Luckily, if PC gamers do not support DirectX 11, they can switch to Fortnite on other platforms such as PS4, Xbox One and mobile version.
Players who are not comfortable can follow the instructions here to see if their PC supports Microsoft DirectX 11 or not the Fortnite Season 10 play: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/ help / 15061 / windows-which-version-directx
