Luckily both engines offer asset stores that allow users to download free and paid props, shading, textures, and many more. Although Unity supports normal maps, occlusion maps, base textures, and other standard shading features, it lacks the advanced material editor found in Unreal engine. Unity still lacks the shading details.

If they don’t create textures themselves, 3D modelers will work especially closely with texture artists and look development artists (aka surfacing artists) who will add realism and detail to their model through texture maps and shaders. They may also be required to use software that processes scans and photogrammetry.

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. There's a decent debugger overlay with dev console too, for those who use those things. (Reminder: for iOS, that means WebGL 1.0 and no WASM.) I didn't try to find out.
