<p>Recently discussed on the <a href="https://godotengine.org/article/improvements-gpuparticles-godot-40">Godot website</a>, several new features have been added to the Godot 4 GPU accelerated particle systems. New features include:</p>
<ul>
<li>support for sub-emitters</li>
<li>new collision systems
<ul>
<li>box and sphere colliders</li>
<li>height map colliders for outdoor maps</li>
<li>SDF colliders for internal meshes</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>new particle attractors</li>
</ul>
<p>While we are going to have to wait until Godot 4 to get our hands-on the new Godot 4 in a production environment, we can check out the new GPUParticles3D node in action by building from the nightly source. That is exactly what we did in the <a href="https://youtu.be/X8wNi6MX9mc">video below</a>, check it out for a preview and a mini tutorial on using particles in Godot 4.</p>
