Unreal Chat SDK for Multiplayer Video Games
The Unreal Chat SDK includes the core functionality you need to interact with the Stream Chat API, with support for messages, channels, reactions and more. The SDK also incorporates a selection of Widgets so you can start building your own chat user experience in Unreal.
The best place to start is the Unreal In-Game Chat Tutorial. The tutorial teaches you the basics of using the Unreal Chat SDK to integrate in-game chat into your Unreal Engine project.
