Available in its final version since April 2022, the Unreal Engine 5 is clearly the engine to watch very closely. Between the demo of Matrix Awakens, the photorealistic workshop of a young independent artist or more recently Etchū-Daimon train station in Japan, the Unreal Engine 5 has already convinced us. And obviously, the engine has also won over many studios since a lot of games have already been announced in development on the new Epic Games software.
