Engine, Nanite and Lumen. Oh My!

[Slaughter]

Catchy post title, eh?

Just a bit of news about the upcoming Unreal Engine 5 to be released in 2021. First is a video showing the new Nanite and Lumen technologies in the engine (good names for subsystems). It is titled, "Unreal Engine 5 Revealed! Next-Gen Real-Time Demo Running on PlayStation 5".

Further reading from a blog post, "A first look at Unreal Engine 5".

I've always liked the UNREAL engine. This is on a whole new level. Wish it would be incorporated in an FPS. I dont play Fortnite. Slaughter do you know what games they are gonna use this on.

It won't be released until late 2021, but for Epic it will only be Fortnite AFAIK. Sadly they abandoned the latest UT project several years ago.

Can't wait for this game. Patience man, patience!
