Unreal Engine 5.8 CRAZY Features 🤯

from Bad Decisions Podcast Hosted by Bad Decisions Studio

Epic Games dropped the Unreal Engine 5.8 preview, and it is stacked with updates that change real time work, from full body Mesh to MetaHuman and a production ready MegaLights to a new mesh terrain system and an official MCP server that lets AI agents work inside the editor. Then we broke down the Take-Two CEO's argument that AI is brilliant at making assets but cannot make hits, and we debated where the line between asset creation and real creativity actually sits.
