What are some of the rendering techniques used in modern games?

[Scorvian]

I wanted to know more about the rendering techniques used in metro last light, sleeping dogs, battlefield 4 and tomb raider. i'm making a video on what each game's engines bring to the table in the computer graphics arena. also list of DX11 features used in each engine would be nice info too

that's GDC 2014. I need specific info on the games i listed which are from 2012-2013 for the most part

Just google the name of a game + game engine; you should come up with a "Wiki" page that has all the game engine related info for each game title, as well as list of unique features, such as those brought on by DX11 and such.

Really!?
Let me google that for you[lmgtfy.com]

Tomb Raider (2013) and upcoming sequel Rise of Tomb Raider...
Game Engine: Crystal Engine
Developer: Crystal Dynamics
Publisher: Square Enix (acquired the old publisher, Eidos Interactive back in 2009)


Some other games that use Crystal Engine:
Deus Ex: Human Revolution (2011)
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend (2006)

but it doesn't state the specific features of the engine and a list graphical features are used in tomb raider. all i know it has is HDAO, tressFX hair and tesselation but i know there is more than that going on

Perhaps look at in-depth reviews on such games. They sometimes provide more info on such things than a Wiki does.

Also search for "Modified Crystal Engine"
as that is the unofficial name for the one used in Tomb Raider 2013, as it is beefed up over previous versions, but they don't really give it official version names. So yea can be a bit confusing, but looking at place online that offer more in-depth info as to the games graphical features and such should help.
