We have some exciting news to share with you regarding the development of our game. We are thrilled to announce that we have made the decision to transition Winter Survival from Unreal Engine 4 to Unreal Engine 5!
The move to UE5 allows us to take advantage of some fantastic new features that are not available in UE4, such as Lumen. Lumen is a revolutionary global illumination solution that allows for real-time lighting and shadowing, as well as accurate reflections and refractions. This means that our game's environments will look even more stunning and immersive than ever before.
To showcase the power of Lumen, we have prepared some new screenshots that demonstrate the incredible lighting and shadows that you can expect to see in Winter Survival. Check them out below!

But that's not all. We also want to give you a sneak peek at what you can expect when Winter Survival releases in October in Early Access. In the game, you'll play as Danny – a normal guy who is stranded in a harsh, snowy wilderness. You'll need to gather resources, manage your hunger, thirst, and warmth levels, and be careful not to overexert yourself or take unnecessary risks. But you won't be alone - there are plenty of dangers lurking in the wilderness, including hostile wildlife. Check the graphic below for more details.
We can't wait to share Winter Survival with you when it releases in Early Access this October. Keep an eye out for more updates and information in the coming months!
