Epic Games has a long history and is known for creating prominent games such as the Unreal Tournament and Gears of War series and developing the Unreal Engine. Their most recent ventures include Fortnite and the Epic Games digital distribution platform.
Epic Games has been operating since 1991 in the United States. They have released 57 games listed on PlayPile, appearing as a publisher on 38 titles and a developer on 46. Their work spans many platforms, with PC being the most common at 32 releases. They also have a presence on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, DOS, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, iOS, Android, and Mac. The company produces games across several genres, but shooters dominate their catalog with 34 titles. Adventure comes next with 13 games, followed by role-playing games at 9. Their output has shifted over time. They released 13 games in the 1990s and another 13 in the 2000s. Activity increased in the 2010s to 20 games, then slowed to 9 in the 2020s so far. The quality of their work varies across this history. They have 13 great titles rated 80 or higher and 15 good titles between 60 and 79. There is only one mixed title and no poor ones among the 29 rated entries. Their average rating sits at 78.4 out of 100. Some of their highest-rated games include Unreal Tournament from 1999 with a score of 92.1, Gears of War 3 from 2011 at 89.4, and Robo Recall from 2017 also at 89.4. Recent releases show a different pattern in ratings. Fortnite: Minty Legends Pack came out in November 2021 without a high score listed. The Matrix: Awakens - An Unreal Engine 5 Experience received 67.7 points in December 2021. LEGO Fortnite: Odyssey scored 66.2 in December 2023. Rocket Racing from the same month got 60.2. Even the recent Fortnite OG: Chapter 1 Season 6 in October 2025 does not show a score above their average. While they are known for creating the Unreal Engine and prominent series, their newer projects do not consistently match the high scores of their earlier hits like One Must Fall: 2097 or the original Unreal Tournament games.
