NCSoft Licenses Unreal Engine 4
MMO developer to build on legacy of Unreal Engine for new games
Epic Games has licensed Unreal Engine 4 to NCSOFT through a long-term deal that grants the publisher of massively multiplayer online (MMO) games to utilize Epic’s technology and tools for upcoming projects.
“Unreal Engine 4 is an extremely fascinating game engine in terms of its unprecedented efficiency and performance,” said James Bae, chief product officer of NCSOFT. “We plan to release our best game ever using our Unreal Engine expertise and the new state-of-the-art Unreal Engine 4 tools.”
Under this new agreement, NCSOFT is building onto its track record of shipping games using Unreal Engine technology. The studio’s Unreal Engine 2-powered Lineage II has sustained a player base over the past decade. Blade & Soul was developed with Unreal Engine 3 and has become one of Korea’s most popular games.
