Epic Games has held its latest State of Unreal presentation, during which it demoed new features for Unreal Engine 5.2, fresh peeks at Unreal Engine games such as NCSoft’s Project M and Ninja Theory’s Hellblade sequel, plus a live demo of Fortnite’s brand new UE5-powered creative mode.
Oh, and Tim Sweeney gave his thoughts on the concept of an “open metaverse”, which he predicted would arrive in the next decade.
Today’s presentation began with a look at new procedural generation technology being baked into UE 5.2, which will allow developers to build a small section of an open-world environment, from which Unreal Engine can then build out a much larger area at scale. A demo video showed how components can be switched out on the fly, with elements such as a bridge adapting automatically to the environment around.
