Unreal Engine is one of the world’s most powerful 3D computer graphics game engines, developed by Epic Games. It was first introduced in 1998’s first person shooter game “Unreal” and although initally developed for FPS games, it has since successfully expanded into a plethora of various genres, including but not limited to MMORPGs, paltformers, fighting games and more. It’s one of the world’s most open and advanced real-time 3D creation tools, second only to Unity, and today used by developers and CG artists worldwide.

Since release, Epic Games has expanded the use of their engine to not only cater to game development, but also contain full tool kits for industries such as automotive and architectural visualization, film and TV, broadcast and live event production and other real-time applications.

It’s famous for its depth of features and high visual quality and Unreal Engine 5 has continued to build on these strengts, giving its users extremely intricate 3D detail, facial realism and large-scale world building.
