All those major studios listed have their own game engines, so unitys decisions don't affect them anyways. And Epic develops Unreal Engine, so Unitys' loss is their win.



Bethesda has a game engine?

I thought their games were run by a 1000 year old abacus.


Starfield engine is pretty good: https://youtu.be/neO-Bl7g9-U


I would claim that’s the physics engine, more than the “game engine”. Physx did this sort of thing 15 years ago.


well, no one else is known for their "physics engine", so clearly Bethesda did something right, or cheaper than everyone else (doubtful).


If it were actually part of the gameplay, rather than the result of console commands, then I think this would hold more weight.


I've checked some gameplay footage and it's atrocious.

Bethesda is making the same game in a different package ever since Oblivion.


Which is Nintendo's whole business, to be fair.


Heartstone is Unity, Witcher card game by CDPR may be as well.


Support for Gwent will end this year and Hearthstone is soon 10 years old and not that relevant for Blizzard. Their much more important game Diablo Immortal uses a different engine.

The big publishers only used that engine for a few offshoots and this change will guarantee that won't happen again.
