As we mentioned, there are reports that the game will exploit all the features of the Epic Games engine, especially the Ray Tracing technology, which will work in the game as follows:

  • The game's ray tracing technology will be used to improve three basic elements: lighting, reflections, and shadows.
  • The game will have 100 times more environmental and character detail than Gears 5.
  • The game development team Coalition has promised to provide the best technology that shows blood and destruction in the most beautiful game images.
