Game development studios looking to take advantage of the latest features in Unreal Engine 5 need to upgrade. But just like any upgrade, it takes time. Testing the update against the codebase can halt development. For teams with multiple releases, it means supporting various versions of the game engine.
To seamlessly manage the Unreal Engine integration, leading studios choose Perforce Streams.
Perforce Streams is the branching mechanism in P4 — the game development standard for version control. But it does so much more. Streams allows studios to version, test, and even customize Unreal source code, while developers keep working. It can simplify upgrades while keeping code quality high.
Learn how you can optimize your integration. As our experts discuss how to:
- Set up Perforce Streams to manage Unreal Engine.
- Version your game engine alongside source code.
- Integrate upgrades without slowing teams down.
- Support previous versions of Unreal Engine.
