Something that I've been working on (on and off!) for more than a year ago, made it into #NoMansSky Voyagers - working closely with Sony to achieve the mind boggling feat of Playstation Spectral Super Resolution applied to eye tracked foveated rendering, in our game! Enjoy :)

[Sean Murray @NoMansSky]

Been playing all weekend, incredible game 😍

Huge congrats to the team at Fuse - a fellow Guildford dev - what an awesome first game 💪

I was lucky enough to work with a bunch of these folks on Burnout Takedown - great to feel those emotions in a game again 😘

No Man's Sky Is Coming To iOS, And It's Looking Utterly Extraordinary https://t.co/cpPHVyquLL

@Griff_ If the engine team are looking for a new challenge Martin, hear me out with this one...

[Martin Griffiths @Griff_]

With #NoMansSky coming to iOS, I thought it was time to update my fun list of all the platform combinations we support after more than 10 years of development! It’s a long list, which I hope gives a sense of the mad complexity involved in releasing and maintaining a large cross-platform game like ours:

PS4 (Base)
PS4 (Base, PSVR)
PS4 Pro (×2 - 1080p/4K modes)
PS4 Pro (PSVR)
PS5 (Base)
PS5 (Base, PSVR2)
PS5 (PSVR, running the enhanced PS4 version)
PS5 Pro
PS5 Pro (8K)
PS5 Pro (PSVR2)
Xbox One / Xbox One S
Xbox One X (×4 : Quality/Perf × 1080p/4K modes)
Xbox Series S/X (×4 : Quality/Perf × 1080p/4K modes)

PC (over 200 combinations of graphics options - DLSS, frame generation, FSR etc and all the quality settings.)
PC (Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Integrated graphics)
PCVR (around 15 supported headsets, with most of the same options as flat mode)
PCVR (eye-tracked foveated rendering for Steam Frame, Pimax, Meta Quest Pro headsets)
Mac (a similar range of options, with development support from The Forge Interactive across all Apple platforms)

Switch (Handheld)
Switch (TV mode)
Switch 2 (Handheld)
Switch 2 (TV mode)
iPhone 11-18
iPad Air 3–iPad Pro M5

This is a simplified breakdown from a graphics engine and platform perspective, without counting major systems like networking, input and audio…

There are also many other integrated graphics paths, including HDR, VRR and dynamic resolution scaling (DRS) on consoles and handhelds. On PC, there are optimisations for CPU instruction sets such as AVX and AVX2, alongside fast paths for each specific GPU vendor.

All created and maintained in a single unified codebase by the systems and engine team at Hello Games.

We’ve added Steam Frame support - available now in the latest #NoMansSky experimental build!

Eye-tracked foveated rendering is supported and should also work on other compatible headsets, including Meta Quest Pro and Pimax Crystal.

[Martin Griffiths @Griff_]

So how does foveated rendering work on PCVR with eye tracking?

It uses Variable Rate Shading (VRS). In the shot the inner black circle is full rez and the two outer rings are half and quarter Rez - the centre tracks where you are looking at! A simple technique to save GPU time!

[Martin Griffiths @Griff_]

New options appear in-game on supported headsets!

For headsets without eye tracking, fixed foveated rendering should still be available, provided your graphics card supports VRS (Variable Rate Shading).

Some places in #NoMansSky simply have to be visited at least once. This is one of them. ✨

QR Code City is the most impressive “base” I’ve ever found. Honestly, it’s a city! 🏙️

I’ll stay a few days to explore it and its outskirts. 💕

It’s finally launch day for STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™.

Three and a half years ago, Fuse Games was a handful of people with a big idea. Since then, our small team has poured their hard work and talent into our first game, and that big idea comes to life today. Fusing our love of racing and our love of STAR WARS. A run-based racing adventure where high-speed action collides with risk, reward and consequence.

Here's a personal message from the team.

[Fuse Games @Fuse_Games]

All of us here at Fuse Games have been pouring everything into this game, and to see the reviews coming in has been truly humbling.

From all of us on the development team- thank you.

Reckon NME follows NMS because they once set up a news filter incorrectly.

Star Wars Galactic Racer in VR is the best non-simulation VR driving experience ever seen in Unreal Engine; the sense of speed, the fantastic and breathtaking views of the planets in the Star Wars galaxy will bring tears of emotion to my eyes. I've been waiting for this moment since 1999 when I saw Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Thank you, praydog, for your gift!
