Title: Epic to port UE3 to iPhone
Post by: kat on December 30, 2009, 07:45:18 PM

News from Epic on UE3, it's being ported to iPhone/iPods (http://www.anandtech.com/gadgets/showdoc.aspx?i=3695) which puts it in direct competition with the likes of Unity 3D and a couple of other engine providers on those platforms. There doesn't appear to be any information available on what sort of licensing deals Epic will offer on this port, but given how 'generous' Unity 3D and other are, they'll certainly need to be aggressive on that score - especially since apps have to be approved by Apple before being allowed onto their platforms.

What's next for Unreal Engine? Browsers?

interesting the direction these companies are going in. I previously would of never imagined epic or id designing engines to run on anything less then the most powerful consoles or pc's.
