Rein is a Canadian entrepreneur and the vice president of video game and software development company Epic Games.[1][2][3] He is also a co-owner of the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes.[4] Rein is known to often give assessments of the progress of his company and gives a monthly update in the magazine Game Developer where he provides a short update on the state of the Unreal Engine. He resides in Raleigh, North Carolina, though he was raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[5] CareerRein first got involved in the video game industry when he got in touch with John Romero, who at that time worked for id Software. Since Rein was a fan of the previous Commander Keen games, Romero got him to playtest the then under development Commander Keen 4. Rein was then brought in to handle the business side of id as its "probationary president". He then negotiated a deal with FormGen to publish a retail Commander Keen game. This business relationship with id lasted until Spear of Destiny (which again, he negotiated as a retail version of Wolfenstein 3D). During the development of Wolfenstein 3D, he was later let go from id after a difference of opinion with the rest of the staff. He was also later joined at Epic by Jay Wilbur, id's ex-business manager, and Rein's involvement in id did mean that he was briefly mentioned in the book Masters of Doom.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/intel-unveils-new-mmx-pentium-chip/|title=Intel Unveils New MMX Pentium Chip|work=Maclean's|publisher=The Canadian Encyclopedia|date=17 February 1997|accessdate=22 December 2014|first=Joe|last=Chidley|deadurl=no|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141222190122/http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/intel-unveils-new-mmx-pentium-chip/|archivedate=22 December 2014|df=}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.wired.com/2007/02/interview_epics/|title=Interview: Epic’s Mark Rein|work=Wired|publisher=Condé Nast|date=5 February 2007|accessdate=22 December 2014|first=Chris|last=Kohler|deadurl=no|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141222191500/http://www.wired.com/2007/02/interview_epics/|archivedate=22 December 2014|df=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/gamesblog/2008/jan/30/themarkreininterview|title=The Mark Rein interview|work=The Guardian|publisher=Guardian Media Group|date=30 January 2008|accessdate=22 December 2014|first=Keith|last=Stuart|deadurl=no|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141023021521/http://www.theguardian.com/technology/gamesblog/2008/jan/30/themarkreininterview|archivedate=23 October 2014|df=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/articles/epic-games-co-founder-buys-stake-in-nhl-team/1100-6404624/|title=Epic Games co-founder buys stake in NHL team|work=GameSpot|publisher=CBS Interactive|date=28 February 2013|accessdate=27 December 2014|first=Eddie|last=Makuch|deadurl=no|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20171230115021/https://www.gamespot.com/articles/epic-games-co-founder-buys-stake-in-nhl-team/1100-6404624/|archivedate=30 December 2017|df=}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://hurricanes.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=657825|title=Hurricanes Welcome New Investors.
