So Epic Games just announced:

We’re pleased to announce that Unreal Engine 4.25 is now available for download, with a host of new and enhanced features for industries across the board.

For game developers, this is the first release with initial support for Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X as first-class platforms, and throughout the year we will be updating the 4.25-Plus branch with optimizations, fixes, and certification requirements to support developers launching on the next generation of consoles. Features include platform-specific functionality, such as new audio advancements, initial support for online subsystems, and early support for TRC and XR certification requirements.

Meanwhile, we’re continuing to progress the Chaos physics and destruction system, and we’re happy to say that with this release, Chaos supports destruction, static mesh dynamics with collisions, cloth, hair, rigid-body skeletal control for items such as ponytails, and scene queries. There’s still more to come in future releases.

Finally, with this release, real-time ray tracing is now also officially production-ready! From games, films, and broadcast to automotive and architectural visualization, ray tracing enables you to achieve new levels of believability in your real-time projects.

Well probably later there will be an Unreal Engine 5. But it's common for Unreal to do this kind of update to support new stuff. Though with this should be easier to update FF7 remake with stuff like ray tracing and even better Tifa's PLOT collision detection pyhsics to ps5's quality lol should SE is going to do that with FF7 remake.
 
I have to tell you, it is absolutely so fun and such a blast to think about the thought of making games for microsoft or sony. To be quite straight-forward even the thought of a small project inside of an advanced IDE seems awe-inspiring and something I want to get started soon.

I'd love to start a small project soon maybe an Android or iOS game and see where that takes me.
