They'll be competing similar to Shiva Engine, it will be a mindshare battle as they aren't the first Unity competitor.

Unity is the most known and jobs and markets have sprung up around it as well as a massive asset store now exists, it also has many integrations such as apis and tools that take years to acquire.

Unreal and Epic have Tencent money and are on the way.

The OSS side of this engine is pretty interesting. Will be fun to have another competitor in this area. Xenko looks like a direct Unity competitor even down the the pricing and tiers. The big challenge is the community, asset stores and launched titles under the engine. Branding is important as well, to me Shiva and Xenko are forgettable brands, Unity and Unreal are set in minds.
