Unreal Engine 4 now available in a new subscription model

The Unreal Engine 4, originally developed and marketed by Epic Games, announced today that their proprietary technology will take an entirely different approach to its business model using a subscription-based system. Instead of paying for a license, which typically goes in a hundreds and thousands of $, will be available for a flat fee of $19 per month, plus (here’s the real kicker) – 5 percent of gross revenue from any commercial product.

This certainly opens up new opportunites for game developers. It’s a fair pricing it would seem, considering 5% can be construed as being quite high, however, given the prowess of the Unreal 4 Engine, this is quite the way to go. The engine is still available as a custom-negotiated license, for those not looking to go the subscription model route
