During the keynote speech on the first day, Friday the 14th, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney (who visited Japan for the first time in seven years) and Epic Games Japan representative Takayuki Kawasaki spoke and talked about Unreal 5's vision and future roadmap.

At the beginning of the lecture, Tim Sweeney delivered an opening speech for the "Tokyo Unreal Engine Festival 2025", talked about the on-site ecosystem, and mentioned the long-awaited Unreal 6 engine.He said that the Unreal 5 engine will transition to the Unreal 6 engine within two and a half years.

The Unreal Engine 6 will be equipped with the programming language "Verse" developed by Epic Games and the next-generation implementation platform "Scene Graph".

Tim said that the programming language "Verse" used in UEFN is easier to learn than Unity's C#, but it is scalable enough to support a AAA development team of hundreds of people.

The company also offers Scene Graph, a next-generation implementation platform that is more suitable for larger and more scalable games than existing systems, especially MMO games, which allows many developers to work while sharing code and resources.

These efforts will lead to the birth of Unreal 6, which Tim said will be born in the next two and a half years. It will combine the best parts of the Unreal 5 engine and the "Fortnite" ecosystem.
