Yea, but they've been marketing Unity 5 for a long time now. Finally they just said "screw it and release it to public".

  I doubt they just said screw it lets release. This week is GDC so both companies were likely to make large announcements during GDC IT just so happens that epic didn't wait for their keynote, meaning it's more like unreal said "screw it lets just go for free"

    They had to. Even their forums exploded with people asking about this. And honestly, I'm very glad they did it. Now I have two game engines to mess around with.

      My point was that they had most likely planned on releasing during GDC anyway, (which is this week)
