Do you honestly think UE3 is the only licensed next-gen engine? It's simply one of the more popular ones and one of the early ones. If a studio doesn't want to make their own engine there are many other (and in some cases better) options. And who's really surprised to hear that UE4 is years away? |
I don't think it's the only one, but it seems to be one of the only flexible ones, and one of only three I see used for console gaming, with Havok and The Source Engine being the other two. I could be wrong though, so which engines are being used other than UE3, Havok and Source?
