Epic have revealed what their new Unreal engine will be capable of. Many games have used the Unreal engine as their backbone (Bioshock, Batman Arkham Asylum, Bulletstorm to name a few recent ones) so its hard to contain the excited yelps when you see a video like this. New lighting effects, ‘bokeh’ depth of field, and lots of other phrases for “snazzier graphics” mean the next generation should be suitably prettified.
I recently played through Cult of the Lamb, a satirical take on the concept of running a demonic cult. It turns horrific things like sacrificial rituals, cannibalism and straight up gaslighting abuse into hilarious amusements by filtering everything through its cartoonish lens.
