How fast the marketplace is moving to Unreal Engine 5.

New supply has decisively moved to UE5: it is now 93.2% of new releases and climbing. But the installed catalogue is more evenly split — version-tagged listings run 53.3% UE5 to 46.7% UE4.

That gap is the opportunity. A large body of proven UE4 content still sits on a thinner UE5 shelf, an opening for cleanly rebuilt versions of what already sells rather than untested new ideas.
