Fortnite's Season 11 is around the corner, and many players are looking for the dust to settle after a contentious Season 10. Today, developer Epic announced some changes coming to the main battle royale mode, including alterations to matchmaking in the upcoming 10.40 patch and the addition of bots in Season 11.
In a blog
post today, Epic wrote that it will be adding "improved matchmaking logic to Battle Royale core modes to create fairer matches" with the 10.40 patch. The post doesn't get much more specific about the changes, but Epic notes,
"You will be more likely to match with players of similar skill, and as you get better, so should your opponents." The changes will happen progressively across regions.
Currently, players are matched in lobbies regardless of skill level, which can create unbalanced games.
