They went for an industry standard middle ware, I don't for a second doubt the power of Unreal played with it myself in the past a system that lacks power prevents me from furthering those experiments but still the fact they use the same engine as the Batman games is quite a strange decision.
XV from memory uses the in house Luminous Engine which was their Direct 11 and next gen engine, would have thought they'd have used that or perhaps the under wraps Shinra Engine (Though I believe that is more for VR development -- When I actually checked turns out it's some kind of Cloud Based Gaming system go figure). Oddly I'm more intrigued by the decision to go out of house for the remake and well it's 3am and I'm incoherently rambling so I'm going to shut up now!
