Ah, probably another Slay The Spire 2 type situation then. Unity really screwed the pooch on that one.

I wonder how many tools Unreal has written to convert assets over from Unity setups…

3D models aren’t tied to Unity, so all 3D models could probably easily be imported to Unreal.
Unity also has a 3D model exporter, so they could have used that to get all 3D models into Unreal within minutes.

Yes, there are many basic file types that would be easy. That said, 3D models and raw image textures are only a few basic examples of game assets. Many like customized materials or maps just save in an engine-specific format.
Hence the comment suggesting they have tools that at least closely convert what someone has from Unity.
