Epic's 2026 AI MegaJam runs November 12-15: teams of up to five humans plus unlimited AI agents build a playable game in Unreal Engine or UEFN. $65,000 in cash prizes, a Best Student Project category, a $2,500 best dev log prize, and continuation grants up to $50,000 for selected entries. AI use is optional and doesn't affect scoring; the author suggests prepping agent configs and prompt libraries before the jam.
