澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has clarified that the studio's next generation game engine, Unreal 5, will run on both PS5 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X

Revealed as part of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Games Fest last week, Epic used Sony's next-gen console to show off a prototype demo demonstrating the technical possibilities of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Unreal Engine 5, which is launching next year. 

The focus on PS5 left some wondering whether Xbox Series X, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft's own new piece of hardware scheduled to launch alongsi🐎de Sony's later this year, would also be able to run Unreal 5, and any games that use ♔the engine to operate. 

Thankfully, in last week, Sweeney clarified that the engine will be "fully supported on both" consoles, suggesting꧅ that Epic used the PS5 to showcase its tech after "years of discussions" with Sony about the future of game hardware. 

And in case that wasn't clear enough, Sweeney that "high end PCs" will be able to run even 🍒the most ambitious games built in Unreal Engine 5, "with features for scaling the content down to run on current generation platforms using traditional rendering and lighting techniques."

While last week's demo was mighty impressive, here's hoping we see some real, upcoming games built in the engine soon. Relatedly, rumour has it that PlayStation has a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PS5 event scheduled for next month....
