Welcome to the Wwise Unreal Engine 4 integration!

This is the source code page for the Wwise integration in Unreal Engine 4.

You can build the editor for Windows, and compile games for Windows, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Android.

If you need any help, please refer to the Wwise_UE4_Integration.chm file in the repository. You can also visit the Q&A section on the Audiokinetic website.

Source releases

This integration is compatible with Unreal Engine 4.8 and is based on Wwise 2014.1.5. You can download the latest Wwise version here.

If you wish to compile against Wwise 2013.2.x, simply remove the following line in <UE4_ROOT>/Engine/Source/ThirdParty/Audiokinetic/Audiokinetic.Build.cs:

AddWwiseLib(Target, "AkSynthOne", akPlatformLibPath);
