"One of its major features is Nanite, an engine that allows for high-detailed photographic source material to be imported into games.  The Nanite virtualized geometry technology allows Epic to take advantage of its past acquisition of Quixel, the world's largest photogrammetry library as of 2019. The goal of Unreal Engine 5 was to make it as easy as possible for developers to create detailed game worlds without having to spend excessive time on creating new detailed assets." - _Unreal Engine_
