Unreal Engine 5 has become a name hopelessly tied to the new generation. Epic Games, after showing in action what the new version of its graphics engine will be capable of on PlayStation 5, has now clarified that its powerful tool did not hide sequences of loading times through the small sections where the protagonist slowly crossed corridors.
This resource, used in many video games of the present generation to avoid black fades while loading the immediately consecutive environment, was not part of the strategies used by the North American team when it presented this first staging of its next engine.
"The current goal of that part was to force the player's camera to be placed so close to the wall as to show the great amount of detail in that scene," says an Epic Games representative in a meeting with Kotaku. "We are not trying to hide any load time but really show how good assets look even in very close shots," he adds. The demo, as confirmed, was rendered at 1440p "most of the time."
