The Redfall shooter runs on the Unreal Engine 4.26

The creative director of the shooter about the battle with vampires Redfall confirmed that the game will not switch to the Unreal Engine 5. IN an interview with WCCFTech portal Harvey Smith explained that at the time when Epic Games released Unreal Engine 5, the project had reached the middle of the development stage, and by that time the studio had already done a lot of work to upgrade to the version Unreal Engine 4. 26, which is used in the game.

According to Smith, if they had more time left, then perhaps the transition to Unreal Engine 5 could take place, but not in this case. Redfall will be released on May 2 only on PC and Xbox Series X|S.

At the same time, Smith's conversation also revealed that the PlayStation 5 version of the game was originally planned, but it had to be abandoned when Microsoft acquired Bethesda.
