The American company has created different virtual productions that gave it name before the famous Battle Royale.
Many will ask what it was Epic Games Before the launch of the ‘Fortnite’, because the truth that all we can say is that he had released some video games with a popularity much lower than that of Battle Royale. But we will better review that tour of the video game developer.
The most important thing we should know is that its headquarters are in Cary, North Carolina, under the name of Potomac Computer Systems and that right now is linked to the Chinese company of Tencent Holdings, artificial intelligence developer.
Another fundamental aspect that you should know is that it was founded in 1991 by Tim Sweeney, although currently occupies the CEO position. Epic Games is also currently the parent developer of several developers such as Chair Entertainment, Psyonix and Quixel.
Although mainly the company is known for its technology Unreal Engine, a game engine that allows you to use mode Shooter In the first person. Hence his best successes regarding this type of game modes: Unreal, Gears of War or, the worldwide popular, Fornite.
But before these successes, he had a long journey as an own video game developer and for other companies. Example of them are: ZZT, his first launch, Overkill, Tyrian, Epic Pinball, Brix, Dare to Dream, Jill of the Jungle, Kiloblaster, Xargon, Solar Winds, Ken's Labyrinth, Jackrabbit Jazz, Radix: Beyond the Void and One Must Fall: 2097. Surely more than one sounds to you or you have played it on more than one occasion. All of them were developed between 1991 and 1999, and it would be from then on when it would begin to take great steps through the development of video games for the best consoles in the world such as Xbox 360, PS3, PCs, etc. And the rest is already living history.
