Agentic Development in Unreal Engine with JetBrains Rider | Alexander Dzerakh | GameDev Day 2026

Generic AI can write code, but the hard parts of Unreal Engine development happen across editor workflows, engine subsystems, build errors, crashes, and configuration files. This session shows how JetBrains Rider, ACP, and UE-specific skills can give AI agents engine fluency and practical access beyond source code. Through live demos, we’ll cover AI-assisted workflows for architecture, C++ scaffolding, crash triage, actor placement, and automated testing.
