Esports Extrashas shown on their YouTube channel the first 13 minutes of gameplay Lords of the Fallenwhich boasts of having been created with the graphics engine Unreal Engine 5. Obviously, this game arouses great interest beyond the gameplay, since it involves seeing how the first games based on the most modern version of the Epic Games graphics engine are really looking.
This is an ambitious Hexworks game and, as you can see below, a soulslike. That is, a game inspired by Dark Souls. This implies some very dark environments and, above all, going through various corridors, which is not ideal to fully appreciate the visual quality. To this is added that it has risen at 1080p resolutionso it does not represent the final quality.
Lords of the Fallen fails to impress in its first extended gameplay
Although at 1080p it doesn’t help, talking about Unreal Engine 5 is big words and, when it comes down to it, the game Doesn’t look like a next-gen title. In principle, due to the controls, we would be before PC versionalthough of course, it is also unknown the graphic level to which it is configured. Despite this, at the beginning of the game, the water does not look realistic either.
On a visual level, it is not that it looks better than what already exists, although it must be recognized that at lighting level feel one step ahead. On the other hand, there are also physics, animations and movements. It is a soulslike, and it is evident that here the gameplay prevails, and in that aspect the game promises to be up there with the best-known games in the industry. On a visual level it looks pretty good, but don’t expect a great advance on a visual level despite using Unreal Engine 5.

This CPU should be attached to 12GB of RAM and a GPU equal to or greater than NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 590. Due to the 6 GB VRAM requirement, both the GTX 1060 3GB and the Radeon RX 580 4GB are not recommended. To finish, 45 GB of available space is required.
