Balancing quality and performance is done by controlling the game’s internal rendering resolution. It uses ray tracing to provide infinite bounce in indirect lighting, without the need to bake lighting or create multiple light setups for scenes. Developers can also easily build advanced 3D tools and expand their ecosystem reach.
