Great news, and reminds me that after picking up the last one in the Steam sale for a couple of quid I still haven't started it... think that might be my weekend sorted biggrin

Yep, good stuff. I enjoyed all 3 of the recent ones, so this one on a new engine should be great.

If you want to have a taste of Unreal Engine 5 and haven't yet you can download the Engine from the Epic Launcher and then the free City sample demo from the marketplace.

PS. And if you keep all gaming things on a secondary drive don't forget to go into Settings and change the location for the vault cache or it will download the 100GB City demo to your C drive.

Its quite unbelievable whats available for free these days, UE5 is on a different level !

Regarding the City sample demo, amazing as it is, slight caveat being if you want to run it and you've managed to d/l the 100gb, the requirements are:

Windows 10 with support for DirectX 12
12-core CPU at 3.4 GHz
64 GB of System RAM
GeForce RTX-2080 / AMD Radeon 6000 or higher
At least 8 GB of VRAM

Shut up and take my money!
I'm of the belief there's genuinely not been a duff 3rd person 3D TR game. I've bought and played them all to the end, which due to my lack of any real skills, says a lot (I'm looking at you Doom Eternal; where's the fun?!)
There's always a few genuine stop and stare moments, even if the storylines are generic aa, who cares? Let me climb stuff and kill baddies.

Looking forward to this, the first 2 games in the reboot trilogy were fantastic, although I was a bit disappointed in Shadow and it did feel very rushed towards the end.
