Chaos High-Performance Physics and Destruction System Real-Time Tech Demo | GDC 2019 | Unreal Engine

Revealed onstage at GDC 2019 during “State of Unreal,” Chaos is Unreal Engine’s new high-performance physics and destruction system coming in beta to Unreal Engine 4.23. The real-time tech demo is set within the world of Robo Recall. With Chaos, users can achieve cinematic-quality visuals in real time in scenes with massive-scale levels of destruction, with unprecedented artist control over content creation.

Was a great gesture from NASA to lend them their supercomputer

I have a feeling that this is a teaser for an actual Robo Recall sequel.

This bring me lovely memories of Physx back when they revealed, i really hope that this time it will be widely available for both developers and players without requiering Nasa hardware.

This sort of destruction is really awesome, but something I'd like to see in the future is having it work in tandem with some sort of soft-body or deformation physics to give metal and other materials that tend to bend before breaking a more realistic feel. It's always the one thing that seems to be lacking from any destruction engine, but I understand the performance costs of such a system.

Oooof 🤤😍 if only DICE's Battlefield series had destruction like this

This destruction is the holy grail of next gen gaming experience.

I've longed for this for a long time. With the insane computing power of modern processors I think this can be something else!

[DrPlz]

Finally something which will dethrone Red Faction series :D

Respect to the demo-maker. Looks impressive.

[Deliveredmean]

The presentation reminds me of an arcade game. Which is coool!

[MineMinerCreeper]

it will be nice to have the tech talks uploaded. I am guessing that is coming soon.

4 years later and things that never happened, part 1: This.

[NickCasale]

Damn, this is wild. Hopefully we'll see this kind of stuff in games soon.

[tomasssemevics]

We need games like this! Imagine a game where you can this to a huge city!

Look at all these people born yesterday getting overexcited for a engine tech demo... lol
Tech demos like that is just for fun. It NEVER becomes a game. Every generation we get incredible tech demos but we never get a game with those graphics/physics till 10 years later.
