Light Linking in Blender 4.0

Blender 4.0 introduces Light Linking, which is a really useful feature for making your renders look more beautiful.

Using Light Linking, you can for example add a rim light to a foreground object or character, without that light influencing the background or anything else. This is especially useful for stylized renders.

It’s a feature that’s exclusive to Cycles. Who knows, maybe Eevee Next will support it as well?
