The Unreal Engine is a game engine developed by Epic Games, first showcased in the 1998 first-person shooter game Unreal (series).

Although primarily developed for first-person shooters, it has been successfully used in a variety of other genres, including stealth, MMORPGs, and other RPGs.

With its code written in C++, the Unreal Engine features a high degree of portability and is a tool used by many game developers today.

The current release is Unreal Engine 4, designed for Microsoft's DirectX 11 and 12 (for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Windows RT; GNM (for PlayStation 4); OpenGL (for OS X, Linux, iOS, Android, Ouya and Windows XP); Vulkan (for Android); Metal (for iOS); and JavaScript/WebGL (for HTML5 Web browsers).
