>UE 5.8 is the last planned major Unreal Engine 5 release on our roadmap as we ramp up work on UE6.

Unreal Engine 4 was release in April 2014 and UE5 released in April 2022. That is a 8 year gap.

Seems really early to focus on UE6.

The release video blew my mind. Generate a city from nothing. Fill a room with life just via writting a story for an asset placing agent.
