Epic Unreal Giveaway Continues Another Year

<div><p>Two great pieces of news for Unreal Engine developers today.&nbsp; First off, Epic Games have announced they are continuing the monthly <a href="https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/uesponsoredcontent">Unreal Engine asset giveaway</a> that they have been running for the previous year.&nbsp;&nbsp; This means on the first Tuesday of each month, you have the opportunity to “buy” 5+ assets from the Unreal Engine Marketplace for free.&nbsp; Once “purchased” they are yours to keep forever.</p>
<p>The second news is that Unreal Engine are giving away $4 Million worth of assets from the game series Infinity Blade.&nbsp; Details from the Unreal Engine <a href="https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/epic-releases-4-million-of-infinity-blade-assets-and-renews-featured-free-unreal-engine-marketplace-content">blog</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>In addition to renewing the program for another year, we’re celebrating this milestone with the release of five new asset packs from the award-winning Infinity Blade franchise, valued at $4 million in development investment. Along with seven previously released Infinity Blade packs, these <a href="https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/assets?count=20&amp;sortBy=effectiveDate&amp;sortDir=DESC&amp;start=0&amp;tag=82">free Infinity Blade assets</a> are now available for use in Unreal Engine projects, for free, permanently.</p>
<p>Going forward, new featured free Marketplace content will be released on the first Tuesday of every month, and the catalog of permanently free assets will also continue to grow.</p>
<p>Lastly, mark your calendars for the Creator Appreciation Event, a special sale launching on Tuesday, November 5 in recognition of alumni who have contributed to the free content program in its first year. </p>
</blockquote>
<p>It is not entirely clear if there will be free content on November the 5th, or if the Infinity Blade content is considered this months entry.&nbsp; Regardless, stay tuned to GameFromScratch for ongoing coverage of Unreal Engine marketplace giveaways!&nbsp; To learn more and see the new assets, check out the video below.</p>
<p><strong>EDIT: </strong>In the official media release, it was clarified that there will in fact be a release on November 5th!</p>
