No.

Got some quotes from my thread regarding this on Paradox Plaza:

We usually call it "our engine", although our CTO Ivan-Assen pushes us to come up with a proper name every two years or so... Will keep you posted if he is successful this time.

(and no, it is not Unreal Engine, it is a creation of our own)

Yes, the last games using this were Tropico 5, then Victor Vran. But we keep tinkering with it - Tropico 5 was many years ago now!

This thread is officially responsible for our new engine name - Sol Engine.

Do you guys like it?

It's the "Sol Engine", they just named it officially. It's their own in house engine.

What I found on google.


RPGWatch: The graphics look very good so I was wondering if you could talk a bit about the engine you're using?

Boian: Thanks! We are very proud of how our visuals turned out, and our proprietary engine and toolset definitely helped us achieve this result. Using our own technology allows to us achieve a distinct look and feel with the game and readily move into any direction we choose. At the same time maintaining an engine requires a lot of effort. It's a tradeoff that we've made. A fun fact - this is the same engine that powers the city-builder Tropico 5 and the turn-based Omerta: City of Gangsters.
