Zen Studios rebuilds Pinball FX on Unreal Engine; FX3 tables require repurchase but will remaster ~100 games.
Zen Studios announced a major shift for Pinball FX: migrating from their proprietary PX Engine to Unreal Engine 5, requiring all ~100 tables to be remastered. Tables will not transfer from FX3 to the new Pinball FX: players must repurchase. The game launches on Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Epic Games Store (Steam later). Zen is negotiating with platform holders and licensors to bundle legacy tables and offer discounted pricing to ease the transition.
Zen's The Pinball Show Ep. #3 Mel Kirk sat down with Bobby and they talked more about Pinball FX, including some hard questions that they knew they'd need to tackle eventually.It’s worth breaking down some of the points that Mel raised and extrapolate upon them because you might have missed some of the contexts due to information overload.
