Industry News | Sega Grabs the Unreal Engine

Yet another company had jumped aboard the Epic train and grabbed the rights to the Unreal 3 Engine. Just like Square Enix before it, Sega now has licensed the popular engine for use in new games. Whether or not Sega will be able to tailor this towards Wii development is unsure, though, but you have to hope something positive will come out of this for Nintendo fans.

"SEGA is pleased to arm our developers with the sophisticated tools contained in Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3. Its versatility and power will help SEGA create incredible gaming experiences."
- Simon Jeffery from SEGA of America.

"Epic is extremely excited to be working with SEGA. SEGA has a long history of innovation and leadership in our industry and we're honored that they've chosen to use Unreal Engine 3."
- Mark Rein, Vice President of Epic Games.
