Unreal Engine 4.19 features renderer improvements, new animation and physics capabilities, VR improvements, initial support for the HTC Vive Pro, Steam Audio Beta 10 integration, Live Link plug-in improvements, and a plethora of other work.

Renderer work includes support for temporal AA upscampling, dynamic resolution support based upon the previous frame's GPU workload, landscape rendering optimizations, and more.
