At the State of Unreal presentation in 2023, Epic showcased some new features coming to Unreal Engine 5. These new features included Substrate, a new method for handling materials, and new procedural generation tools. Forza 6 needs to take advantage of what Unreal Engine 5 has to offer to up its game.
Will Forza 6 come with Unreal Engine 5?
Undoubtedly, Forza has been people’s favorite ever since the first Forza game came out. Its realistic environment and car mechanics gave players an immersive driving experience. Forza was able to come up with unique settings and world-building that had not been seen before, making it one of the best Xbox originals.
However, there is still scope for betterment, especially after Unreal Engine 5-powered, scarily realistic car simulation has gone viral. Unreal Engine 5 has been around for a while and people are now craving for a game that comes with it.
All eyes are on Forza 6 right now, ready to debut on Xbox showcase, to take advantage of the Unreal Engine’s recent mastery over environmental procedural generation tools, Substrate, a new method for handling material and realistic physics for an overall holistic package.
Whether Forza 6 come with Unreal Engine 5 or not is still a mystery as nothing has been announced by any of the two companies, and with the Xbox showcase right around the corner, maybe we get to see a big reveal of the game’s collaboration with Unreal Engine 5.
Unrealistic system requirements to run Unreal Engine 5’s creations
Having showered accolades on their recent breakthrough, it is not strange to mention the limitations that come with an ahead-of-its-time technology. Most people will never be able to have a taste of what Unreal Engine 5 has to offer given the limited power their machines hold.
Not many people have industry-grade powerful computers to run things that are way ahead of their time. With the car simulation going viral, currently, there is no doubt people are also talking about how unreachable this technology is for a layman. One user on Instagram commented under the video showcasing Unreal Engine 5’s latest car mechanics, he wrote –
And let me guess, when modern games use this technology we will be required to have a 4090 minimum
4090 is a luxury not everyone can afford and hence that is the biggest bottleneck that games face while Collaborating with Unreal Engine 5. They have a lot to offer but until there is enough power with the mass to take advantage of what Unreal has to offer, it can only be experienced by a selected few behind closed doors.
