Spilling the beans, UE5, Release Date

Hello,

since I am aware that many people are waiting for the game, I want to share what the plan is now.

I want to keep it short, to not waste your time, so lets get started:

1. Release Date is now "Early 2022" (ignore the store page, its a placeholder date.)
2. The game will be using UE5 now.
3. There will be big visual improvements in image quality and graphics quality.
4. The system requirements do not change*, if you can run the previous games, you can run this one at the same graphics quality as previously. (You still get the sharper image, even if the new graphics are not enabled.)
5. The game will be larger than previous games.

*Except that its DirectX 12 only now, but the system requirements always covered that. (The minimum required cards were DX12 capable.)

So, how does the game look like now?
See below.
