Unity and Epic Games Together Advance the Open, Interoperable Future for Video Gaming

Also announced today at Unite, Unity’s Annual Developer Conference, Unity will be bringing Unreal Engine support to their cross-platform commerce platform. This will give Unreal developers more choice for managing everything from their digital catalogs and payment providers to web shops across PC, mobile, and web. Developers will be able to manage pricing, promotions, and live operations with Unreal Engine, coming early next year.

“We’re excited to partner with Epic Games to create more opportunities for game developers around the world,” said Matt Bromberg, President and CEO, Unity. “Choice and open systems create growth for everyone in the gaming ecosystem.”

“Just like the early days of the web, we believe that companies need to work together in order to build the open metaverse in a way that’s interoperable and fair,” said Tim Sweeney, Founder and CEO of Epic Games. “Working alongside Unity we’re helping developers build fun games, reach bigger audiences, and find success.”

Additional details about this partnership and product timing will be shared next year.

Unite brings together over 1,500 developers for technical sessions, networking, and hands-on learning. The Keynote will be livestreamed here at 10am CET today, with the recorded sessions available soon after on Unity’s YouTube channel.
