UE5 uses Lumen.
Insane lighting.
Release - 2022.

 

[dotnotbot]

Maybe I'm weird but I definitely prefer Fall Guys graphics over this.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Now THAT is impressive

 

[GymWolf]

On my tablet looks gorgeous, wtf.

 

[AJUMP23]

Cool look, put it on Gamepass and I will play it.

 

[kruis]

Looks impressive - but the game also seems to run in slow motion.

 

[shubik]

looks brain-melting good. It's crazy how good the materials look nowadays. I remember being excited about the clothing materials in assassins' creed unity. Especially the velvet. But this comes close to real life.

 

[JoeBudden]

Lol the only thing this game has in common with Rocket League is its vehicle based too.

Still looks really good tho.

 

[Elder Legend]

Looks impressive - but the game also seems to run in slow motion.

Yeah it looks a tad slow. I think its far from release, maybe was recorded purposely this way to show off visuals and power of UE5.

 

[CamHostage]

Hmmm. It's amazing that Unreal Engine can produce that almost out of the box, and the game looks like it could be nonsense-chaos fun. I like what I see and think it could be fun.

...That all said, does anybody else feel like this is a "Baby's First Unreal Game" project?

Unless I'm reading wrong, it appears to be stock assets/technology, plus a gameplay concept that can be built quickly without a lot of custom design. Boot up UE5 Preview, download a bunch of UE Marketplace assets, turn on Lumen and Nanite, turn on Chaos physics, plug in Unreal EOS for networked gameplay, and set Start/End points on your map to form a basic game.

I mean, the developer has done two months development, and if you read the comments and Discord, there's not a lot he knows about the UE5 roadmap beyond what's in the Early Access build (he's not even sure what the status of console deployment is, yet he's announcing for PS5 and XSX as an unpublished independent developer?) I could be rushing to judgment over his skills (and whatever the case, the fact that UE5 can do this practically out of the box is staggering,) but I'm hesitant about this one. Hopefully it defies my concerns and turns out as good as it looks.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Well, I'm interested pending it's not some exclusive to a stupid launcher.

 

[Fbh]

Visually looks amazing, though I imagine that between the visuals and physics it will be quite taxing hardware wise. These games usually thrive on being able to run on a potato

 

[NeonDelta]

that looks awesome

 

[M.W.]

Vroom, more like Sloowm

 

[Nankatsu]

Is this from the same studio?

If not talk about a rip-off, huh?

 

[FearlessBelgian]

Wow that impressive

 

[Derktron]

 

[Klik]

I may be crazy but this is the first time i see actual next gen graphics that wow'd me(after Unreal Engine showcase). Looks spectacular, can't wait to play it. Can't wait to see more what UE5 is capable of

 

[The Fartist]

 

[Sander Cohen]

Graphics - photorealistic. Gameplay…meh.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

These kinds of materials are always the first to get a massive boost from any kind of improved lighting solution; looks nice, though the gameplay looks pretty slow.

 

[Arioco]

WOW! The lighting is crazy. It really makes the game look like something that exists in the real world.

The frame rate it a bit all over the place, but there's still time to optimise.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Graphics are pretty neat for sure, but the gameplay looks pretty meh.

 

[Dr Bass]

Not big on the style but the rendering quality and realism is maybe the best I've seen in a production game. UE5 is going to be a beast. Extremely cool to see.

 

[Holammer]

That's purdy, but it's feels too slow and plodding for a car game.

 

[Robb]

Looks great visually and I love the physics, but it didn't look very fun imo.

 

[Bryank75]

Bit of arcade fun in between though-provoking masterpieces.

If you had Fallguys, this and a shooter like Splitgate.....you'd be pretty set for things to play in small stints between longer games.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Graphics are meaningless.

Game design is all that matters.

(This doesn't look very fun)

 

[NahaNago]

Looks amazing but really slow. Honestly comes off looking like a tech demo.

 

[JimboJones]

Looks very very nice at the very least, hopefully it's fun.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Looks impressive - but the game also seems to run in slow motion.

I was going to say the same thing. A combo of slow looking gameplay and clunky to boot.

 

[blastprocessor]

Looks nice.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Jesus h christ video games look amazing these days! Holy shit!

 

[DenchDeckard]

Powered by an RTX 3090 i presume.

 

[Markio128]

It could be fun, if sped up x 3. I doubt it though - it just looks way too cluttered and slow.

 

[Bernd Lauert]

The power of raytraced lighting. Pixar quality.

 

[MDSLKTR]

I may be crazy but this is the first time i see actual next gen graphics that wow'd me(after Unreal Engine showcase). Looks spectacular, can't wait to play it. Can't wait to see more what UE5 is capable of

You're not crazy, this is what games are supposed to look like from 2021 and onwards. And it's pathetic this little game is what's wowing us today

 

[UnNamed]

 

[Shubh_C63]

great music selection guys.

 

[baphomet]

That shit looks insanely good!

I'll be trying it out for that alone. Also the combination of Fall Guys and Rocket League sounds like it could be fun.

 

[Gamerbrain]

Graphics are meaningless.

Game design is all that matters.

(This doesn't look very fun)

I wouldn't say graphics are meaning less because then all of us would be ok with playing Colecovision or Atari 2600. Did I just age myself?

 

[bitbydeath]

Looks like one to keep an eye on.
Description:

Dear Gamers,

I'm happy to share the first trailer of the game I've been working on in the past 2 months. Vroom! is going to be a battle royale style obstacle racing game where you can drive and customise toy cars and trucks and race online with 60+ players, alone or in a squad in realistic environments.

The game is planned to be released for PC, PS5 and XBOX series S and X late next year.

If you would like to participate in the alpha and beta weekends for exclusive rewards or just simply interested in the game, join the Vroom! discord: https://discord.gg/mBQ3hdBEJD

[DonF]

Damn that looks nice

 

[Dibils2k]

HOLY GRAPHICS BATMAN

 

[Kokoloko85]

Looks really nice art style wise and looks.
Id love to see the Toy Commander IP brought back with these graphics
Or even Pikmin

 

[chaseroni]

This looks phenomenal wtf, I want a Toy Story game like this now lol

 

[existensmaximum]

I have no interest in the game but man, that looks seriously impressive. Wow!

 

[Castro27]

Completely unrelated but now I want to watch Eurotrip again.

 

[Yoboman]

I know its shallow but this just makes me want a massive graphical upgrade to Rocket League to UE5
