Unreal Engine uses C++, Unity's core is C++. DirectX is a C++ API.
Install any game on Steam and you'll see the Visual C++ runtime being installed most of the time.

I honestly think I addressed this. Most developers aren't trying to extend Unreal or Unity - they're building games with the aforementioned tools.
- jhasse 9y agoAt least in Unreal you can build your game in C++. But you're right that C++ is getting used less and less in games, but I would still say that it's the most used language, especially in AAA games.
