Since its official release last month, Unreal Engine 5 has been used to create some impressive projects. The latest example comes from YouTuber and developer Enfant Terrible, who created a content reel that reimagines Cyberpunk 2077’s Night City in Epic’s software.
A number of artists helped create the project, with the following talents contributing to the tech demo (via IGN and 80.LV):
Artists used environment megapacks from Epic Marketplace to recreate Night City and populated it with characters from Epic’s the MetaHumans Creator and additional work in ZBrush and VFX.
Cyberpunk 2077 was developed inside the Red Engine, CD Projekt Red is switching to Epic’s software for its next title as The Witcher 4 will be developed inside Unreal Engine 5. Crystal Dynamics has also started work on a new Tomb Raider in Unreal Engine 5 and Gears of War developer The Coalition recently showcased some of their latest projects developed with the software.
For another chilling example of how Epic’s game development software is able to create photorealistic environments, you can also check out this bizarre recreation of Etchu-Daimon Station in Japan that was created by the 3D artist Lorenzo Drago.
