The Wayward Realms Ditches Unreal Engine 5 for Proprietary Engine

The highly anticipated RPG, The Wayward Realms, intended to compete with Elder Scrolls 6, is switching game engines. Developer OnceLost Games has decided to move away from Unreal Engine 5 and build their own custom engine. According to the game’s creative director (in a YouTube video), while Unreal Engine 5 is good for many games, it doesn’t quite fit the needs of The Wayward Realms.
