Unreal Engine 5.5 Tech Demo Unveils Cyberpunk Future
An exciting new tech demo powered by Unreal Engine 5.5.3 has been released, providing players with an immersive journey through a futuristic cyberpunk city. Crafted by the talented artist Sciontidesign, this project draws inspiration from the iconic Samaritan UE3 demo, the visually striking Blade Runner franchise, and the expansive world of Cyberpunk 2077. The demo was demonstrated on high-end hardware, including an NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU, AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM running at 6000MHz.
This technical demonstration showcases the power of dynamic lighting, leveraging the capabilities of Nanite with Distance Field Meshes and Ambient Occlusion, combined with Screen Space Reflections. Notably, it does not utilize advanced features like Lumen, Path Tracing, RTX, DLSS, or baked lighting, emphasizing what Unreal Engine 5 can achieve even without its most sophisticated tools.
While the rain effect may appear somewhat artificial, the rendering of wet surfaces is remarkably detailed, enhancing the depth of the urban environment. However, the experience is marred by frequent invisible walls, which can detract from the overall immersion. Although Unreal Engine 5 tech demos consistently deliver visually stunning experiences, games built on the engine often face performance challenges when applied in real-world scenarios.
