About the community

Unreal NYC provides a venue for users of Unreal Engine and other Epic Games products to meet, share knowledge, collaborate, and demo projects. The group spans games, animation, film, broadcast, live events, and architecture.

Agile Lens has been the lead organizer since May 2025. In that time the community has grown past 1,400 members, with regular meetups hosted at Epic Games NY, School of Visual Arts, and partner studios across the city.

Per Epic Games' guidance, we've consolidated active organizing onto the official Unreal Communities chapter and our Discord. The Meetup archive remains live as a record of past gatherings.
