Retail kit during an Unreal Engine migration
What retail kit means during an Unreal Engine migration. A practical guide for game studios, publishers, and technical teams.
Definition
Retail kit covers platform code, hardware access, and parity between target systems. It shapes the technical choices made when a project moves from a legacy codebase or engine into Unreal Engine.
Why it matters
Teams need a shared meaning for retail kit before they estimate work, define acceptance criteria, or prepare a release. A clear definition keeps scope discussions concrete and gives QA something specific to verify.
