Epic Games presented Unreal Engine 5 for the first time in public in 2020. Gamers are still waiting for the technology to become widely used almost three years later. There aren’t any UE5 games available to play right now besides Fortnite and The Matrix Awakens, and the first round won’t come out until the very end of the year at the earliest. The State of Unreal speech Epic gave at GDC 2023 recently had a number of new demos highlighting the engine’s most recent features, despite all of that.
