One of the key innovations is the experimental MegaLights feature, which allows you to add hundreds of dynamic lights with shadows to scenes without sacrificing performance.
This tool will help developers and artists create more detailed scenes without a significant loss in performance.
Particular attention is paid to the mobile segment. Unreal Engine 5.5 has received support for many features that significantly improve the graphics quality on smartphones.
These include D-bumper decals, capsule shadows, animated IES textures for the lights, volumetric fog, and various lighting effects using the Niagara system.
It also adds rectangular lights and improves real-time rendering, making the engine especially useful for creating high-quality games on mobile devices.
