AAA game engine in C++. Will this trend ever change?

C++ is the industry standard for writing game engines, and AAA game studios withought C++ is unimaginable. There are no indications for a change in the future. Will C++ always remain the standard? It seems so.

What's wrong with this trend? High quality games require good performance. Find other alternatives to C++ which can offer the same performance, and you'll see more games developed using them (given that someone will write OpenGL interfaces for those languages).

Yeah thats what I am talking about. Game engines in any other thing than C++ is unimaginable.
