Epic Games has released a roadmap for the Epic Games Store which include plans for cloud saves, achievements, user reviews, a store page redesign, and more. <\/p>\n
The full six month roadmap<\/a> can be viewed on Trello, with Epic explaining that the new features listed and the dates they’ll be implemented are “subject to change.”<\/p>\n A lot of the features outlined are usually found in other digital storefronts, but they’ve been a long time coming, given the lack of features the store launched with.<\/p>\n Based on the roadmap, during the next three months Epic plans to launch offline mode improvements, cloud saves, improved patch sizes, among other things.<\/p>\n After that it plans to work on additional payment options, wish lists, currencies, play time tracking, and mod support.<\/p>\n In the future, Epic says they want to release achievements and a shopping cart, along with an overhaul of the store\u2019s social features.<\/p>\n One of the social features outlined in the roadmap include a user review system based on the existing one used by the Unreal Engine marketplace.<\/p>\n Most notably, it will be opt-in for developers (interesting, as Valve recently changed their approach to user reviews<\/a>). \u201cWe think this is best because review bombing and other gaming-the-system is a real problem,\u201d Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney tweeted<\/a>.<\/p>\n A handful of other features, like automated refunds, gifting, and an Android store are all listed as TBD. As Epic clarified above, everything is subject to change. <\/p>\n
