been passed around like a pack of chewing-gum in a school-yard.<\/p>\n<p>Just about every game developer has used Epic&#8217;s tech to build their projects, and now the innovators themselves are showing off their next update of their 3D graphics engine.<\/p>\n<p>The Unreal Engine 4 is shown off in a number of screenshots (although we would&#8217;ve preferred a video, but we&#8217;ll take what we can get), and its looking pretty impressive to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>The demo shown was built in less than 3 months by 14 engineers, and is said to be revealed publicly in June &#8211; probably at <a title=\"E3 - Electronic Entertainment Expo\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/21509-E3-Electronic-Entertainment-Expo\">E3<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The engine will undoubtedly find its way into games within the near future, but with the Unreal Engine 3 still looking gorgeous in games like Gears of War 3, Mortal Kombat and the upcoming Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, the new iteration of Epic&#8217;s engine may find itself at home with some of the PS4 and Xbox 720 launch titles.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the demo images below:<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style
