It is very powerful compared to other 3D game engines. It can run code in C/C++ or in the visual Blueprints code. > > **Cons**: It is hard to get to know and it is pretty hard to understand the layout at first glance. They do charge 5% if your game makes over 1 million USD in total. > > Unreal Engine is very powerful compared to other engines I used. But it is one of the more confusing ones to learn if you are starting out with less coding knowledge. ----- ### "Great tool" — 2.0/5 > **Faith** | *06 August 2018* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really great tool for game development with limitless possibilities. > > **Cons**: Steep learning curve, its hard to get the hang of. ----- ### "Creative Alliance Review" — 5.0/5 > **Anil** | *06 July 2023* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We here at Creative Alliance are involved daily in graphics designing and 3D animation. Unreal Engine is our go-to software for daily content. We have been able to provide high quality content to our consumers with Unreal Engine and recent Metahuman Editor integration has been a bonus. > > **Cons**: There is absolutely nothing negative about it because we have switched from another software to Unreal after finding absolutely no flaws. > > After more than 2 years of use, we can confidently say Unreal Engine is the best software for 3D visualization Game Development and Simulation. The realism is UNREAL. ----- ### "The Clear Choice for Low-Code Game Development" — 5.0/5 > **Marcos** | *14 September 2021* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The thing I like the most about Unreal is that the Blueprints, which are its visual scripting features, are part of Unreal's DNA. It's been a part of Unreal for ages. Visual scripting in competing engines like Unity is an afterthought, and therefore isn't nearly as well implemented. Another fantastic thing about Unreal is that Epic Games keeps acquiring really good companion software companies. Just by using Megascans you can get amazing graphics assets for your games without spending a dime. Incredible value all around. > > **Cons**: Everyone knows Unreal's interface is outdated and clunky to use. I'm in the same boat. It's just terrible. Even the asset marketplace is terrible to navigate. It can definitely get extremely frustrating. But when you compare it to what Unreal offers elsewhere, as well as just how clunky Unity and Godot are also, then you realize you're coming out of it all with a net positive. > > Once you get used to the clunky interface, Unreal Engine is by far the best game development environment for my needs. Epic Games has a ton of assets available for free that make game development a breeze. You can deploy games made Unreal just about anywhere, too, without having to pay per export modules (I'm looking at you, Game Maker). I just really, really like Unreal. ----- Page: 1 / 17\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2048053/unreal-engine?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2048053/unreal-engine) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
