Unequivocally, yes.

Unless you are a massive AAA shop with oodles of time and resources to devote to a bespoke engine, if you are writing a game you want to use either Unreal or Unity. It instantly gets you onto every PC, mobile, and major console, and there are lots of programmers and designers out there with skills specifically in those engines.

Maybe if things get really bad, Godot or something will overtake Unity someday, but that day is not today.

Unity has only been a serious game engine for about eight years. I remember it was a really big deal when Blizzard used it for Hearthstone.

Yeah, Unity will stick around for a while. But things do change.
