Although Unreal 5 engine incorporates a number of cutting-edge technologies to improve the visual performance of the game, it always faces severe performance problems. Games developed with this engine rarely get rid of performance-related criticisms.However, Epic Games blames the game developers for these problems.

Recently, Epic CEO Tim Sweeney said that the problem does not come from the engine itself, but the developers have biases on how to optimize games.He believes that many developers have made a key mistake: over-focusing on powerful hardware in the early stages of development, and leaving optimization work to the later stages, actually optimization should be incorporated into the core process from the project launch stage.

He said: "The main root of performance problems lies in the misalignment of development sequence. Many developers prioritize developing content for high-end hardware, leaving optimization and low-end testing until the end. The ideal approach is that optimization work should be started as soon as possible and should be started before the game content is fully produced."

To help developers solve performance problems, Epi announced two measures: one is to launch a more powerful "automatic optimization program" that promises to improve engine operation efficiency through this tool.The second is to carry out "developer education" and emphasize the importance of optimizing from the early stages of the project.

"Today's games are much more complex than they were a decade ago, and it's not easy to solve all performance problems on the engine level alone. Collaboration between engine manufacturers and game developers is crucial. We are integrating the optimization experience of Fortnite into Unreal Engine to help games achieve better results on low-end PCs."
