8 Games That Bring Out The Best Of Unreal Engine 5

Despite being introduced with a fanfare all the way back in 2020 with a glorious tech demo (and reinforced in 2021 with The Matrix Awakens), we’re still in Unreal Engine 5’s early days, even considering how many UE5-based AAA games have been released over the last two years. It’s safe to say that during this time, players have largely established their expectations for the engine: gorgeous visuals often marred by numerous technical hiccups typical of the current version, such as the notorious stuttering caused by shader compilation. This makes the anticipation for upcoming UE5 games like The Witcher 4, Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra, and Ballad of Antara as cautious as it is exciting.
