Unreal Engine 5 is Epic’s real-time 3D creation tool, with this latest edition promising ‘game-changing fidelity.’ What does this mean for us gamers? Well, we can expect unparalleled realism, with immersive lighting and texture effects to unprecedented levels of natural detail.
We’ll talk a lot about Unreal Engine 5’s new features throughout this rundown; in particular, Lumen and Nanite. Lumen is UE5’s ‘dynamic global illumination’ system, achieved by utilizing a global, natural light source to enhance the believability of a game’s setting. Nanite is a system which boosts geometric detail, meaning textures and surfaces from film-quality art sources can be rendered in real-time.
