If Forza Horizon 5 was the best looking game on E3 this year, then S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl was a close second. So what's the secret sauce besides talented developers?

Well, it turns out they are actually using the latest tech from Epic: Unreal Engine 5. This was revealed on Twitter, and makes us look forward to the game even more.
