Unreal like most games does aberration by just splitting and the RGB channels. This produces hard edges and only extracts a few colors at a time.

Enhanced Chromatic Aberration is on the bottom. You can see it extracts a full prismatic color spectrum with smooth lensing:

Chromatic aberration is a trait of physical camera lenses. They refract light so each color hits film/sensors at a different angle, especially towards the sides of the lens.

Video games and virtual cinematography inject aberration to invoke the feeling of a lens.

Exotic color correlations:

Modulate your colors in ways you never thought possible. Give an iridescent glow to your shiniest surfaces, or make creeping polychrome shadows.

Smart Color Curves:

Make sweeping changes to your hue, saturation, and brightness, while preserving the maximum dynamic range of those values.

Tricolor Palettizer:

Choose a tricolor visual identity and shape your image around it. Shift colors towards your palette, or emphasize colors that already match it.

CHROMIA uses the Oklab perceptual color space to make your color transitions silky.

I mean the way they set you up to [REDACTED] then [REDACTED] as soon as you [REDACTED] so you have to [REDACTED] just so you can [REDACTED] what you [REDACTED],
