State of Unreal 2024: all the news from Epic’s GDC showcase

Every year, Epic holds a keynote at the Game Developers Conference to showcase the latest advancements for its Unreal Engine game-making tool, as well as its business as a whole. Last year, that included updates to its hyperrealistic MetaHumans, the launch of the Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and a revamped creator economy within Fortnite. This year, the company has a lot going on — from the mobile version of the Epic Game Store to the resurgence of Fortnite — so expect a busy hour or so of news. At the very least, we should get some pretty tech demos for UE5.

The keynote kicks off on March 20th at 12:30PM ET, and you can watch it live on both Twitch and YouTube.
