Fortnite is getting a bunch of AI-powered ‘personas’

The Verge · 6 hours ago

Epic Games is launching AI-powered character voices for Fortnite creators on July 30th, providing 36 pre-made characters with consistent voices that can be used as NPCs in player-created experiences. The company previously tested AI voice characters with a Darth Vader NPC using James Earl Jones' voice, which required approval from his estate. Creators will now have a library of established Fortnite characters available with AI-generated voices to populate their custom game modes and experiences.
