2D or 3D?

You can use the tools in the Engine and make a matinee using your game assets.

Or, you can use and animation program and make a movie to play. Flash can be used but it’s definitely not the only choice. You can then play the movie on a UMG Widget. You can also use a 3D program such as 3DStudio Max, Maya, or Blender and render out a movie, it is really up to you.

Here is a link that gives an overview of several software’s to make animations: https://www.bloopanimation.com/animation-software/

I have a game (https://forums.unrealengine.com/showthread.php?133289-How-do-I-execute-two-tasks-at-the-same-time) I just want to have an intro animation. I can animate but I don’t know how to set of the blueprints and stuff.
