FIRST OFFICIAL PLAYSTATION 5 GAMEPLAY Unreal Engine 5 Demo on PS5
5A tech demo for Epic's recently announced Unreal Engine 5 showcases what next-generation games could look like.
Coinciding with the announcement of Unreal Engine 5, Epic Games released a tech demo running on PlayStation 5 that showcases what the engine is capable of delivering in terms of graphics and overall presentation. Though it wasn't a slice of a full game, it does show just how far the PS5 will be able to push visuals past what the PS4 could do.
The new real-time demo is called "Lumen in the Land of Nanite." According to Epic, the trailer is meant to showcase what the Unreal Engine 5 is technically capable of delivering in terms of real-time rendering details for next-generation games "and beyond."
The Lumen in the Land of Nanite tech demo focuses on two of Unreal Engine 5's "core technologies," including Nanite and Lumen. In short, Nanite is a new "virtualized micropolygon geometry" technology that gives artists the ability to create "as much geometric detail as the eye can see." For this tech demo, Epic used the Quixel Megascans library that features "film-quality" objects that feature "hundreds of millions" of polygons' worth of detail.
The Lumen in the Land of Nanite tech demo is the product of "numerous teams and technologies," Epic said. Importantly, this video is not meant to represent what PS5 and Xbox Series X games will necessarily look like, but instead what Unreal Engine 5 is technically capable of allowing for. However, the demo is fully playable, so this is not some pre-rendered footage meant to trick players. Games can feasibly look like this on next-generation systems.
Unreal Engine 5 will become available in a preview at the beginning of 2021, with a full release scheduled for later in the year.
