Rejoice Godot fans, for #GodotEngine 4.5 Beta is here. This should more or less be what we expect to see in the 4.5 final release... just buggier.
We go hands-on with the new features in Godot 4.5.

O3DE have just released O3DE 25.05, the open source AAA game engine spawned by Lumberyard (and CryEngine before that).

Godot 4.5 Dev5 is here & in theory it's the final Dev release leading up to #GodotEngine 4.5.
