For the first time in several years, Unreal Fest returns to live audiences this month in a sold-out 3-day event kicking off on the 17th of October in New Orleans.
For those who don’t live in the US or were unable to secure a ticket in time, you are in luck.
Unreal Engine announced in a Tweet earlier this week that they will livestream parts of the event with 14 games-focused sessions across all three days of the show.
Watch presentations from top game studios like Crystal Dynamics, Iron Galaxy Studios, The Coalition and more, as well as sessions hosted by Epic covering everything from building open worlds to using the latest UE5 features. Unreal Fest 2022 will feature hands-on training, inspirational speakers as well as innovative projects. Developers from Epic will be on hand to answer people’s questions and of course, the highlight of the event will be the big Unreal Fest Party at Mardi Gras World!
If you’re interested in watching the event, pre-registrations are now open for those wanting to gain access to the YouTube live streams.
