11 bit studios proudly announced that after years of using its own proprietary technology, the company is now fully transitioning to Unreal Engine development. As part of a custom license agreement with Epic Games, 10 upcoming projects will be produced internally and externally under the 11 bit studios publishing umbrella, powered by Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 4 and Unreal Engine 5 technology.

The long-term business relationship with Epic will provide 11 bit with the freedom to select which variation of the Unreal license is the most suitable for a particular project, and offer the company the option to extend the number of projects included as part of the agreement.
“The imagination knows no bounds, and now with the Unreal Engine our possibilities are endless, too.” said Przemyslaw Marszal, CEO at 11 bit studios. “The brand new tech of the 5th generation is impressive, and we’re excited that we might use it to its full potential in our new games. What we’re doing is Unreal!”
