Will Mutable Support Nanite Metahumans in Future Unreal Engine Versions?

In the recent “A Peek at Some Future Features Coming to Unreal Engine | Unreal Fest Orlando 2025” talk, Nanite Metahumans were mentioned. If we continue using Mutable, will we miss out on these Nanite-based Metahumans?

I asked some time ago whether Mutable would ever support Nanite and was told it would not, but I wonder if the approach has changed since then. Could you clarify whether Mutable will be compatible with Nanite Metahumans going forward, or if this feature will only be available without Mutable?

Hey there,

As Nanite skeletal mesh support comes online and the Metahuman team starts to integrate it, the Mutable team will be looking to follow that work. That said, the timeline for how that happens is not set and could be staggered. There are still some issues with Nanite Skeletal mesh that need to be addressed to be able to work with Metahumans, and those timelines are also not set.
