Code Vein 2 is Capcom’s latest AAA release. Like Silent Hill f, it uses the UE5 engine with Lumen GI and Virtual Shadow Maps. Nanite seems to be missing. The game’s GPU requirements include the GeForce RTX 3080 and the Radeon RX 6800.
Here's how to unlock the true ending in Code Vein 2!

"It can be hard to make a mark in a genre where even back in 2019 Soulslikes were brimming with variations. That is when Bandai Namco tried something a bit different, infusing anime-styled characters and a storyline packed with unique takes on the genre with Code Vein. Offering a different approach to combat, skills, and even the standard approach to playing with allies, Code Vein found itself a certain niche with its style and now seven years later the series has returned and is looking to reinvent itself again. Only this time, it will do so both with some time traveling and an open world to boot. The question is, have these adjustments to Code Vein II retained what made the original unique enough to stand out from the pack?"
Code Vein 2 is the latest JRPG to embrace the UE5 engine, including Lumen, Virtual Shadows, and TSR. Like Silent Hill f, the game tones down Lumen GI quality to preserve performance, while completely omitting the Nanite engine. Furthermore, the shadows seem to lack SMRT (Shadow Map Ray Tracing) as well.
