What is Unreal Engine? Unreal Engine is a popular and widely used game engine developed by Epic Games.

It is used in many modern AAA games such as Fortnite, Epic Games' own multiplayer game, or other hit games such as Psyonix's Rocket League and games developed by other major studios in the market.

It provides the opportunity to develop games on many consoles and structures from PC to PS4, Xbox One to Nintendo Switch. These platforms include IOS and Android apps and games. The flexibility of the Unreal engine to work across different platforms is one reason it is widely used in the market.

It also has powerful material and animation tools for artists that let you make complex scenes quickly. Setting some of these properties can be daunting at first, but it allows you to start with a lot of basic examples where you can change the parameters until you find what you're looking for.

The biggest advantage of Unreal Engine is that it is completely free to use. Whether you are a hobby game developer or AAA studio, there is no upfront fee to use Unreal Engine. Instead, 5% of each game winnings are requested to earn money.

In Unreal Engine, the mix of artistic and development-oriented tools provides total creative flexibility.
