Unreal Engine 4 could make next-gen console launches if studios are "horribly aggressive"

Unreal Engine 4 could make an appearance on Sony and Microsoft's new systems on day one if developers choose to be "horribly aggressive".

"The problem is without knowing what the dates are it's hard to say [whether it would appear at launch]," senior technical artist Alan Willer said.

"A licensee could take the engine now and decide we're going to break off from getting more code updates and just get out there, and ship launch it if they wanted to be horribly aggressive."

"But at the same time, they could decide to continue to get code updates and ship at their own schedule."

Am I crazy or is there an Unreal Engine 5 now? Why promote old tech?

I really dont understand either? isnt the Unreal Engine 5 already available for studios? arent they already working with it?

masterfox1099d ago

UE5 Is for PS5 only, deal with it! :D

***runs away from this thread with pride!**

Tacoboto1099d ago

UE5 is not released yet and developers for years will still make UE4 games because that's where their tools and customizations are.

Mortal Kombat still uses UE3. Mass Effect Legendary Edition is also still UE3.

Magog1099d ago

That more of an embarrassing indictment of those devs than a reason to promote old software.

Tacoboto1099d ago

Embarrassing indictment? You know nothing of software development then.

Spenok1099d ago (Edited 1099d ago )

Because a ridiculous amount of the industry still uses 4, and because no, 5 is not out yet. They said it would launch later this year.

AuraAbjure1099d ago

Companies still use Unreal Engine 3.

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.

If you suddenly stopped casting reflections in a mirror I think you would notice.

N4G really needs a delete comment button lol

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.
