Additionally, the modern backend can implement rendering methods , such as forward clustered, mobile, and more in the future (such as deferred clustered, cinematic, etc.). and is intended to run on very old PC hardware as well as most older (still working) mobile phones. Rendering is significantly more efficient in Godot 4.0,

The new 3D engine is outstanding, with many features out-of-the-box that are still not common in other mainstream engines. The new 3D renderer is state-of-the-art, with features rarely see in game engines today, such as: Full principled BSDF. Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Don't worry, though, you will be able to reap the benefits of these new features without sacrificing your game's performance. Currently, mobile and web platforms are not available, with support likely coming in Godot 4.1.
