*** Change in UE5.0+ ***
Since UE5, "CSW::LoadGameFromSlot()" does no longer need a SaveGame object reference input. This change will require a small modification in the logic as the node will throw an error (only in UE5.0 for users moving from UE4). Please note that the following link shows the current recommended way of using the "CSW::LoadGameFromSlot()" node.

Additionally, the example project has been updated to UE5 as well.
