It has been a long road to Godot 4.0
was released with the hopes of rewriting the rendering architecture using Vulkan as a target API. After it, 17 alphas followed in total. In September, the first betas rolled out and, since then, the stability of the master branch has improved enormously thanks to contributors changing their mindset to fixing bugs.

In parallel to our work on the upcoming feature releases Godot 3.5 ( with a second beta ) and 4.0 ( now at alpha 4! ), we backport important fixes to the stable 3.4 Rendering: GLES2: Fix compression on blend shapes ( GH-58838 ).

As the alpha of Godot 4.0 comes closer and closer, we wanted to spend some words to clarify the direction that Godot 4 has taken in regard of rendering back-ends. The renderer design and all resulting code had to be re-implemented entirely from scratch in order to support Vulkan and modern rendering techniques.
We are therefore releasing a first alpha snapshot for existing users to play with and report bugs. IMPORTANT: This is an alpha build, which means that it is not suitable for use in production, nor for press reviews of what Godot 3.0 renderer of this build was already a huge refactor. game in the alpha?

UE5’s features and functionality have further expanded to include experimental new features for rendering, animation and simulation. Design: Working with the artist, the design team renders character models, iterates on the interfaces, designs dynamic and interactive level designs and environments, and so on. The steps involved are: 2.
