Unreal Engine 4 developer Epic Games has told VG247 why it doesn’t feel threatened by other engines such as CryEngine 3 and Luminous. In fact, the studio feels that other engine creators go too far out of their way to be unique, making it harder for them to compete with Unreal.
Tim Burton’s vision of Gotham brought to life by passionate fans.
They should have been made a batman game for the best batman movie. This looks amazing and now I must watch the movie.
YouTube's 'ackehallgren' has recreated the Rimmer's Rest from Star Wars Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight in Unreal Engine 4.
NVIDIA and Epic Games have released an official Unreal Engine 4 RTX Tech Demo.
Really impressive tech but I don’t even notice all of these benefits in real life, never mind being chased by zombies in a video game. Rather devote resources to resolution and frame rate.
Yes after seeing the Unreal 5 ps5 reveal, I thought that's where we were heading. But saying that I have read various articles that suggest its easy for developers to still work on Unreal 4 and carry everything over to Unreal 5 when needed, we shall see.
I want to see diversity and have next-gen use multiple engines.
Such as Unreal Engine 4, Crytek 3.5/4, Fox Engine, Frostbite 2/3, SquareEnix Luminous Studio Engine, and more.
Want games to look different and use each engine to their strength.
Uncharted,BF3 visual style over Gears all day long.
Feel and realize is two separate things.
I beleive with Cryengine3, its free to use and distribute a game if its freeware, and not for commercial gains... Absolutely brilliant approach...
Is it the same with Epic's engine's Licensing ?
Reading their license agreements it doesn't seem the case, from what I've found, its only free for the use of development... Is that right?
It would be interesting to know...
The nice thing to consider is that the current engines are not maxed out on the current consoles. Frostbite 2 for example can look and run a lot better than it does on 360. If the next consoles have enough power then the current engines and games are just ready to scale up and be given a shot in the arm.
If I could have Bf3 running and looking like the PC version on a console at 1080p then I'd be very happy to start.
