How Unity is pushing VR and better 3D graphics with its game engine

Unity Technologies showed off some high-end graphics demos created with its Unity 5 game engine last week at the Game Developers Conference. That shows how the little game engine that could is growing up, and it is closing in on the visual quality offered by rivals, such as Epic Games and Crytek.

In a conversation with Unity’s chief marketing officer Clive Downie, we talked about that demo, other advances in game-engine technology, and new services that Unity announced as part of an effort to push the technological edge in the $90 billion video game industry.
