    Ubisoft has Snowdrop, EA has Frostbite. FromSoft uses their own engine. Bandai Namco Capcom has the RE engine. Square Enix uses their own for the FF games. The Horizon and Death Stranding games are built on the Decima(?) engine. Nintendo does their own thing.
    There’s plenty more out there.

    CD Projekt and 343 have been the highest profile switches to Unreal, I suppose. I think Unreal Engine has been most prevalent in “AA” releases? Though I’m sure there’s a lot I’m not thinking of.

      Square enix has used unreal since KH3, they purposefully didn’t upgrade to UE5 for Rebirth though because the devs had made enough internal tools and procedures for 4 that it didn’t make sense to upgrade yet. Not to mention they were aware of the performance issues of 5 and would rather tackle the devil they know when it came to optimisation.

      IO Interactive also use their own engine. They are a minority but some big studios do it. It’s expensive but being able to make something custom and not have to rely on Epic is probably pretty nice
