Jolt Physics, the free and open source cross platform physics engine behind Horizon Forbidden West and Death Stranding 2, as well as powering the Godot and several other game engines, just released the first update of 2026. Jolt Physics 5.6 adds several new features, bug fixes and improvements, but the headliner new feature has to be the addition of hair simulations!
