After the release of v55, VR Tech support will no longer support tickets related to UE4. The v49 update of the Unreal Engine 4 integration will be the last to contain new features for Unreal Engine 4, according to Meta, while v55, scheduled for May 2023, will bring the final patch for the UE4. The name of the corresponding plugin has also been changed from OculusVR to MetaXR. Now that work is complete: On the Oculus Developer Blog, Meta writes that Meta Quest now officially supports Unreal Engine 5.1. Meanwhile, Meta was working on the transition to UE5. On November 15, Epic Games released version 5.1, which reportedly brought the engine’s two most prominent new features to VR: the new geometry and lighting systems Nanite and Lumen. Unreal Engine 5 was officially launched on April 5, 2022.
