From gaf:
There is an interview about Unreal Engine 4 popularity in Japan here
It talks about a lot of games, PlayStation VR, and other stuff.
Here are a few very very rough translation by me:
Q: In Japan, it feels like there are suddenly a rise in Unreal Engine 4 titles particular this year. Can you give us a background?
Kawasaki: Certainly, there are many announcement especially this year and last year. There are Tekken, Kingdom Hearts, Street Fighter, and recently Dragon Quest. The announcement keeps coming, and you can see there are many in the past year. But in reality, we actually talked about these games 2 to 3 years ago. The timing of the announcement just didn't happened until last summer.
Q: Lastly, please tell us about the future development of Unreal Engine. So let's get to the point, are there any hidden gems?
Kawasaki: Again, it's scary when these things get checked all over the internet; however (laughs),
possibly, I believe there is one AAA title to be announced using Unreal Engine 4 by the end of the year.
Examples of Japanese Games using UE4:
Bloodstained
Dragon Quest XI
Kingdom Hearts III
Shenmue III
Street Fighter V
Tekken 7
Any ideas on what this game is going to be?

You forgot to add Final Fantasy VII remake to the list of japanese games using UE4.

Has that been confirmed? I just took the list from neogaf, but some on there were speculating that the AAA game to be announced using UE4 might just be FFVIIR or Resident Evil 7.
