Epic Games Confirms AI Coding For Unreal Engine 6

Tim Sweeney and Epic Games just confirmed they are officially vibe coding Fortnite and Unreal Engine six. Marcus Wassmer admitted that human engineers are no longer writing the bulk of the code. They are relying on tools like Claude Code and Codex to build backend features instead. The company says it fears moving too slowly much more than it fears AI skepticism. And here is the catch. This heavy AI reliance already fixed a ten-year-old bug in the rendering layer in just one week. Epic insists a halfway approach to artificial intelligence is not viable anymore. They plan to keep pushing forward regardless of the critics.
