   1. UE5 — Oblivion Remastered
   2. Resident Evil Engine — Monster Hunter Wilds
   3. Cry Engine — Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
   4. Anvil engine — assassin's creed shadows
   5. Snowdrop engine — star wars outlaws

   1. Forza Horizon 5
4. Games with adjustable texture cache pool size
   1. ID tech — Indiana Jones
5. Games with insufficient texture
