Epic Games雄心勃勃的元宇宙计划:打造一个融合所有游戏的巨型元宇宙

Unreal Engine 6 旨在打造一个包含所有游戏的巨型元宇宙Epic Games首席执行官Tim Sweeney详细阐述了公司的下一步计划,其中包括作为其宏伟元宇宙项目计划一部分的下一代虚幻引擎6的开发。

Unreal Engine 6 旨在打造一个包含所有游戏的巨型元宇宙在接受The Verge采访时,Epic Games首席执行官Tim Sweeney揭示了公司下一个宏伟的计划。Sweeney详细介绍了他对互操作“元宇宙”的规划,该元宇宙将利用使用虚幻引擎的最大型游戏的市场和资产,例如Fortnite、Roblox和其他虚幻引擎游戏及相关项目。

Sweeney告诉The Verge,Epic现在拥有足够的资金来实现这些计划,并将持续到本十年结束。“与业内几乎任何公司相比,我们拥有非常雄厚的资金,并且正在非常谨慎地进行前瞻性投资,我们可以根据我们的财务状况来调整投资规模,”他解释道。“我们认为自己处于一个完美的位置,可以在本十年剩余时间内执行计划,并按照我们的规模实现所有目标。”

Epic的下一步将涉及其高端开发工具虚幻引擎,以及Fortnite的虚幻编辑器——基本上是一个结合了这两者的超级“弗兰肯斯坦”虚幻引擎6,Epic希望在几年内实现这一目标。“当我们将这两个世界结合在一起时,真正的力量就会到来,这样我们就可以将高端游戏引擎的全部功能与我们在[Fortnite的虚幻编辑器]中组合在一起的易用性相结合,”Sweeney说。“这将需要数年时间。当这个过程完成后,那就是虚幻引擎6。”

Unreal Engine 6 旨在打造一个包含所有游戏的巨型元宇宙据Sweeney介绍,计划中的虚幻引擎6将允许开发者——AAA游戏开发者和独立游戏开发者——“一次构建一个应用程序,然后将其作为任何平台的独立游戏部署”,这为利用这些内容和“技术基础”的互操作元宇宙打开了大门。

Sweeney进一步解释说:“我们宣布我们正在与迪士尼合作构建一个属于他们的迪士尼生态系统,但它与Fortnite生态系统完全互操作。而我们对虚幻引擎6的讨论是将使这对于每个人都成为可能的技术基础。从AAA游戏开发者到独立游戏开发者,再到Fortnite创作者,都能实现同样的目标。”

然而,Sweeney表示,他们尚未与Roblox和Minecraft所有者微软“进行此类讨论”,“但我们会随着时间的推移进行,”他补充道。“这里的全部论点是,玩家正越来越倾向于能够与所有朋友一起玩的游戏,而且玩家在他们相信自己会长期玩的游戏中花费更多资金购买数字物品,”Sweeney说,并详细介绍了他希望游说的收入分成模式。

“如果你只是玩玩一款游戏,你为什么要花钱购买你永远不会再使用的物品呢?如果我们拥有一个互操作的经济体,那么这将增加玩家的信任度,即今天购买数字商品所花的钱会转化为他们将在很长一段时间内拥有的东西,并且它将在他们去的所有地方都能使用。”

Unreal Engine 6 旨在打造一个包含所有游戏的巨型元宇宙Epic执行副总裁Saxs Persson也表示赞同,“我们没有理由不能找到一种联合的方式在Roblox、Minecraft和Fortnite之间流动。从我们的角度来看,这将是惊人的,因为它让人们聚集在一起,并让最好的生态系统胜出。”

“我们正在尝试创造一些东西。我们只是试图拓宽我们在Fortnite中今天已经看到的东西。我们真正做的就是加倍努力,去做我们知道今天成功的事情。这就是Tim所说的,”Persson在早些时候接受The Verge采访时说,当时两位高管解释了这个元宇宙如何在实践中运作。

Persson补充道:“如果你和朋友一起玩,如果你有更多选择,你就会玩得更久,玩得更多,你也会更享受你的时间。这个公式很简单。” 正如Sweeney解释的那样,“在游戏行业中,有足够的生态系统和发行商拥有自己的生态系统,因此不可能有一家公司完全主导所有这些生态系统,就像智能手机行业发生的那样。”
