Lumen provides glossy reflections on translucency, like the car windows in the example below. Lumen Reflections also support Clear Coat materials, like the car example below.

Lumen solves indirect specular, or reflections, for the full range of material roughness values.Дiffuse global illumination and shadowed skylight can be seen in all reflections. It is inherently much more difficult to solve than manually placed light sources. However, there's a limit to how small and bright emissive areas can be before they begin to cause noise artifacts to appear. Lumen also provides lower-quality global illumination for Lit Translucency and Volumetric Fog.Д®missive materials propagate light through Lumen's Final Gather with no additional performance cost. It includes sky shadowing, allowing indoor space to be much darker than outdoor lighting, providing a much more natural effect. Sky lighting is solved as part of Lumen's Final Gather process. Lumen achieves full-resolution shading, while computing indirect lighting at a much lower resolution for real-time performance. Unreal Engine 5's Nanite Virtualized Geometry allows for geometry to be much more detailed than ever before. Lumen provides infinite diffuse bounces, which are important in scenes with bright diffuse materials like the white paint in the apartment below. Meshes in the scene also block indirect lighting, which also produces indirect shadowing. For example, light bouncing diffusely off a surface picks up the color of that surface and reflects the colored light onto other nearby surfaces - creating an effect called color bleed. Lumen Global Illumination solves diffuse indirect lighting. Also, these features did not fully integrate with other important systems to widely support most features of the engine. Unreal Engine 4 features, like Screen Space Global Illumination and Ray Tracing Global Illumination (RTGI) were not reliable or performant for projects that relied on real-time with a high enough quality.

Lumen brings robust dynamic global illumination to Unreal Engine and integrates well with other supporting systems in Unreal Engine 5, such as Nanite, World Partition, and Virtual Shadow Maps. When Lumen is enabled for a project, precomputed static lighting contributions are disabled and all lightmaps are hidden. In each category, set the following to enable Lumen: Global Illumination and Reflections can be set independently. Lumen is enabled from the Project Settings under the Rendering > Dynamic Global Illumination and Reflections categories. This prevents breaking or changing any lighting paths within those projects. Newly-created projects have Lumen Global Illumination and Reflections enabled by default, as well as their dependencies like Generate Mesh Distance Fields.Д®xisting projects converted from Unreal Engine 4 to Unreal Engine 5 will not automatically enable Lumen features. Lumen renders diffuse interreflection with infinite bounces and indirect specular reflections in large, detailed environments at scales ranging from millimeters to kilometers. Lumen is Unreal Engine 5's fully dynamic global illumination and reflections system that is designed for next-generation consoles, and it is the default global illumination and reflections system.
