Epic Games Acquires Rad Game Tools

Epic Games has officially announced that they have acquired Rad Games Tools, the company behind Bink, Oodle, Telemetry, and more.

Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

“Members of the Rad team will partner closely with Epic’s rendering, animation, insights, and audio teams, integrating key tech and improvements across Unreal Engine and beyond,” Epic said in an official statement.

“Rad and Epic combining forces will allow even more developers access to tools that make their games load and download faster, and offer their players a better, higher quality video and gaming experience.”

Rad will continue working with companies beyond Epic, regardless if they are using Unreal Engine or not.
