High dynamic range (HDR)

For a list of known games and their specifics, see Unreal Engine 4-5 games where HDR can be forced.

Unreal Engine 5 have native HDR output that can be forced in many newer games with mixed results.

Force the built-in HDR display output of the engine:
  1. Refer to the list of Unreal Engine 4-5 games where HDR can be forced for details about whether the built-in HDR display output is known to work with the game.
  2. Using the guide below, change Engine.ini to include these lines:
    [SystemSettings]
    r.AllowHDR=1
    r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1
    r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=5
    r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=2
    

    Optional changes:

    • If the display supports 2000 nits or higher, change r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice to 6 to use the 2000 nits output mode.
    • Add these lines to boost the UI brightness which may make it integrate better with HDR:
    r.HDR.UI.CompositeMode=1
    r.HDR.UI.Level=1.5
    
  3. The game should now launch with HDR display output enabled and working.

Notes

See the official engine documentation for more details.
