Unreal Engine 5
Unreal Engine 5 is the latest evolution of Unreal Engine, which comes in handy just in time with some "unreal" features like Nanite, Lumen, Virtual Shadow Maps, and World Partition, to name a few.
Nanite is UE5’s new virtualized geometry system that enables you to create games and worlds with massive amounts of geometric detail.
Lumen is UE5's new fully dynamic global illumination and reflections system
Virtual Shadow Maps are specifically designed to work well with highly detailed film-quality Nanite assets and large, dynamically lit open worlds.
World Partition is a distance-based streaming solution. It greatly simplifies the large-world creation process by changing how levels are managed and streamed, automatically dividing the world into a grid and streaming the necessary cells.
