Perpetual License

The perpetual license is the most common type of Unreal Engine license. This license allows developers to use the engine for as long as they want without needing to pay any additional fees. With this license, users have access to all of the features and updates included in each version of the engine.

One-Year License

The one-year license is similar to the perpetual license, but it only grants users access to the engine for one year. After that time, they will need to purchase a new license or upgrade to a different pricing model. This license is suitable for smaller projects or teams with limited budgets.

Subscription License

The subscription license is a monthly payment plan that grants users unlimited access to the engine and all of its features for as long as they pay their subscription fee. This license is suitable for larger projects or teams with more predictable revenue streams.

Enterprise License

The enterprise license is the most expensive Unreal Engine license and is designed for large-scale projects or companies with significant budgets. With this license, users receive custom support from the Unreal Engine team, access to exclusive content, and other benefits not available in the other pricing models.

Summary

Overall, Unreal Engine offers a range of pricing options that are suitable for developers of all sizes and budgets. The perpetual license is the most common option, but the one-year and subscription licenses offer more flexibility for smaller projects. The enterprise license is the most expensive option, but it comes with additional benefits and support from the Unreal Engine team.
