... Unreal Engine is one of the most widely used game development platforms in the world, powering many high-profile games. Epic made Unreal Engine free for developers in March 2015, though they have to pay Epic a cut of revenue if they sell a game made using the engine. As part of its push to compete with Valve’s Steam store on PC by offering developers more generous terms and exclusivity deals, Epic waives the 5 percent Unreal fee it charges for sales of games through its store.
