<p>It was announced today that Epic Games was leading a $15M round of funding for Manticore Games, the creator of the <a href="https://www.coregames.com/">Core </a>game creation platform. Core is a member of a growing segment of “games for making games”, similar to other titles such as Dreams and Roblox. Core is built on top of the Unreal Engine and provides most of the tools required to make modern online games in an easy to use package.</p>
<p>Details of the investment from <a href="https://medium.com/core-games/epic-games-leads-15m-investment-in-manticore-games-ae196726d4d6">Manticore Games</a>:</p>
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
<p>Manticore Games has closed $15 million in funding, led by Epic Games and validating the vision and the progress of Core toward an endless gaming multiverse.</p>
<p>Manticore’s mission is to unleash a new wave of creativity in games by radically lowering the barriers to game making and publishing the same way that YouTube revolutionized video creation.</p>
<p>“Core is very impressive,” said Adam Sussman, President, Epic Games. “At Epic we believe the industry is ultimately headed to games becoming more like open platforms where creators can build their own worlds. Built in Unreal Engine, Core exemplifies this future and goes one step further by providing the environment for anybody to create great multiplayer games, and a metaverse playground where players discover endless entertainment.”</p>
