Radiance Cascades Global Illumination (the one that will probably be a part of the upcoming Godot solution, mixed with their Voxel-based HDDAGI).

The initial solution of Radiance Cascades for 3D lighting was created by Path of Exiles 2 developers. And by Alexander Sannikov, who posted his experiments for the last couple of years.

But this one runs even on a phone. And it's beyond screen space!

So many people asked why I didn't use 3D Post Processing shaders in Godot (that were introduced recently) and just made those screen effects with 2D overlay...

Fortunately, now I can give them Acerola video, that has a brief explanation of complexity it brings to the table:
