It has been a while since we got a new UE tech demo, and since it’s likely that future Gears games will be on UE5 I wanted to share this here for anyone interested.

Saw it earlier today.
Are there any games running on the engine?
Not yet, still early days.
I imagine we will start seeing some announcements for games being developed on it late this year.
I think part of the reason for the tech demo is to get developers signing up for UE, its like a proof of concept type advertisement to them.

With the power of the Xbox coming up and UE5, I can see you taking a selfie/video just for the heck of it next to a TV that says UE5 and Next to the Series X with your long flowing hair with a guitar jamming out…Fade away to words on the tv screen saying, Xbox Series X and Unreal Engine 5…EPIC.Just.EPIC my friend

and running at 1440P (video was upscaled).
I really do think this was aimed at specific devs rather than being a general tech demo.
