Can I sell a game that uses Unreal Engine assets?
Hi, I'm just curious what the status is, since I just downloaded or bought various textures and assets from the Unreal Engine Store.
Assuming I were to make a game with it at some point, does purchasing the assets already give me permission to market a game commercially on Steam, for example, or would I still need to obtain permission? I couldn't find anything quickly on Google…ideally an answer with a source. Thank you very much.
The purpose and purpose of Marcetplace is to promote game development. By buying you also acquire the necessary usage rights to sell a game with it.
You can’t sell the assets yourself.
Basically, if you have all rights to the assets you want to use.
However, there is a mash called “Asset Flipping” where the developers are on top of it with purchased or free assets as quickly as possible to sum up a half-finished game to make money quickly. This is more likely to be seen by players, so make sure that your game does not accidentally slip into this category.
Happy development!
