For some reason, there are only 12 names on the list of Unreal Dev Grants winners. We could not find information about the last finalist.
The previous round of Unreal Dev Grants took place in May 2017. Recall that one of the winners of last year’s competition was the Yaroslavl team One Dream with an adventure role-playing game Be:Brave for iOS and Android.
The Unreal Dev Grants competition has been in existence since 2015, its budget is $5 million. The fund is intended for financial support of teams and individual developers who create projects using Unreal Engine 4 facilities.
