The world’s most open and advanced real-time 3D creation tool, Unreal Engine 5 will be available in preview in early 2021, and in full release late in 2021, supporting next-generation consoles, current-generation consoles, Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. Its novelties are Nanite and Lumen system.
Nanite virtualized geometry means that film-quality source art comprising hundreds of millions or billions of polygons can be imported directly into Unreal Engine — anything from ZBrush sculpts to photogrammetry scans to CAD data — and it just works. Nanite geometry is streamed and scaled in real time so there are no more polygon count budgets, polygon memory budgets, or draw count budgets; there is no need to bake details to normal maps or manually author LODs; and there is no loss in quality.
Lumen is a fully dynamic global illumination solution that immediately reacts to scene and light changes. The system renders diffuse interreflection with infinite bounces and indirect specular reflections in huge, detailed environments, at scales ranging from kilometers to millimeters.
This week we will be showing some concepts and sketches of our characters. All of the sketches need some more sharpening and are not yet final.
First off, the main character, which is called McCoy. Here is some of his concept art.
And here he is at a more developed stage.
Next, we have the melee enemy. As you can see, from here on the sketches are less detailed as they are early in development.
Now, we have the ranged enemy.
And finally Jim Runner, head of the gang controlling sector 42.
As a little bonus, here are some sketches for the first area.
Thank you for your attention.
Stay tuned for next week!

I'm waiting for it to make my own game. Making assets and planning for it.
lol waiting for gears 6 using this engine, there will be no unreal tournament 5 at all
oh boy
It seems quite promising. This engine has enormous potential. It's definitely immersive and realistic.
I have longed for a third installment in the KotOR series and it would be a dream come true if they made it using this software, but it's only wishful thinking. To be honest, I'd love to see another Witch-er video game, because this franchise has limitless potential and relatable characters. And I've seen the Witch-er III launch cinematic numerous times and that's what I wish to see in a sequel.
I honestly think that games have a bright future. And new game engines will merge with reality to some extent someday. I'm glad that visuals will be so realistic now and that they'll encroach/border on reality in the near future. So excited.
