Will Unreal Engine 4 support Windows 10's Universal Platform?

There’s no hypocrisy, if Epic was doing the same thing they are doing they would require you to release your games through their launcher and give them 30% profit if you want to use UE4. By allowing people to use UWP without forcing the apps to use the Microsoft store it encourages them to release their app on Microsoft platforms since it will already be compatible. For example, if I’m an indie developer then I could release on Steam plus Windows Store/Mobile/Xbox and it’d be easier than it is now. Since I don’t want to only release on Windows store, I’m not going to choose that option and I’d likely only release on Steam.
Over time, if people are that easily able to release on multiple platforms, they would end up with more apps in their store.

's ultimate plan is to sell UE games on the Game launcher and take a 30% cut. Its so obvious its not even funny. Its as telegraphed as their marketplace copy of unity.
They are trying to create a origin/uplay copy. But lets not talk about how neither the new Unreal Tournament, Fortnight, Paragon or Shadow Complex are available on any platform other than the Epic Games Launcher. Which is the true motive of this rant.
