The Unreal Engine 4 game engine can now be used absolutely free of charge, without paying its developers a cent if the project made on it does not bring money, Epic Games announced the other day.
In other words, now you can just go to the engine’s website, download it and start developing a dream game for any platform. The sources, if anything, are available. All engine updates will also go free in the future.
The only condition of Epic is as follows: if your project starts making money (or rather, it will exceed the $3000 mark), then every quarter you will have to share with the engine team 5% of the total revenue (gross revenue) of the product (game, movie, anything else).
Are you still here, and not pumping the engine?
