An opposed-piston engine according to an embodiment is a first fuel injection device configured to inject fuel from a circumferential wall surface of at least one cylinder into the cylinder, and a second fuel injection device disposed to be displaced in a circumferential direction so as to be opposite to the first fuel injection device across an axial center of the cylinder. Each of the first fuel injection device and the second fuel injection device includes a plurality of injection holes having different injection directions, in a cross-section orthogonal to the axial direction. A direction directed by a first downstream injection hole is configured to pass through a second injection region, and a direction directed by a second downstream injection hole is configured to pass through a first injection region.
