Former Xbox senior product manager Derek Reese has talked about one reason why content in The Coalition costs

Former Xbox senior product manager Derek Reese has talked about one reason why content in The Coalition costs Microsoft so much.

According to him, a significant part of the studio's budget goes toward supporting its own modified version of Unreal Engine, alongside the development of games from one of the largest franchises of Xbox Gears of War.

Reese proposed to Xbox management to allow other studios to use this version of the engine to split the costs of supporting it, but the initiative was not approved.

A similar situation occurred at Turn 10 Studios, which is forced to maintain its own ForzaTech engine. #game
