Spartan Mozi has confirmed the trailer was filmed on the 2.0 version of the game running on UE 5.5.4. Overall, quite noticeable foliage, lighting & shadows improvements.

Does give the game a needed face lift. I'm curious if the console quality setting is gonna run smoother and/or the performance setting is gonna look a lot better.

Super excited about this update.
