At GDC last week, Epic Games shook up the video game industry: full source code access to Unreal Engine 4 for $19/month + 5% royalties.

As some of you may know, SpeedTree is currently integrated into UE4, but up to now has only been made available to Epic’s AAA/non-subscription licensees. We were intrigued by the subscription model announcement and are moving quickly to respond.

We will absolutely make a SpeedTree offering available to UE4 subscribers and are finalizing our plans to do so. If you’d like to join our mailing list, just drop us an email at unreal@speedtree.com.

Update: A couple of threads over on unrealengine.com about this: here and here.
