Access to Unreal Engine UWP port for Windows Store developers.

Question

Hey Microsoft guys,
I'm an Unreal Developer and a Microsoft Dev Partner and while I see there is a way to get a version of Unreal for XBox that works with UWP, I cannot find any information on a version of Unreal Engine for Windows Store with UWP support. Is there such thing and how can it be accessed?
Thanks,
Eugen

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

There is no such an Unreal version for UWP now. There seems to have one before but now it is not available.

Thank you.

I can get the old one yes (is for Unreal 4.19 I guess). But I'm asking this as a Microsoft Dev Partner, I'm interested in finding out regardless of whether the version is public or not (for example, if you have one internally that you are giving to devs that need it - maybe is not up to date (like Unreal 4.25) but maybe is somewhere in between the public version and where Unreal currently is). Or, if there is no such version, what is the default solution of porting and integrating an Unreal Engine game (successful one) to Microsoft Store (the game already works on Steam and Windows 10).
There is nothing in the UWP docs about it.

Thanks,
Eugen

Thanks, there's no solution from Epic to do so.
