Hey everyone! I’m a casual gamer who recently upgraded to my dream PC. I’ve been seeing some jaw-dropping graphics in games on social media, and I keep hearing that they’re made with Unreal Engine 5. I understand UE5 is mostly a tool for creators, but I’m a bit confused. How do I actually find these amazing games to play? Do I need to create games myself to enjoy those graphics, or is there a way to play existing games like GTA 5 with UE5 enhancements? Any tips or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Unreal Engine is primarily for creating games, so while it’s a powerful tool, you generally can’t just import an existing game into it to boost graphics. You’d need to make a game and its assets from scratch. What you’re seeing are the results of developers using UE5. Unfortunately, it might not be as simple as playing something made by others if you want that high level of detail.
It sounds like you’re seeing a lot of technical demos made in Unreal Engine 5 rather than full games. For existing games like GTA V, you can enhance the graphics using mods available on sites like Nexus Mods. Just search for mods tailored to your favorite games on YouTube, and you’ll find some great ideas!
Appreciate that, thank you!
Got it, thanks for the insight. Is there a way to play or demo the games others have made? I’m unsure where those games go once they’re published.
