The Unreal Engine 5 technology demo prepared for The Matrix Awakens, which was announced with a short promotional video and opened to pre-load for both Xbox Series X and PS5, has finally arrived. With Unreal Engine 5, we are facing the best physics engine, the best graphics and the best effects ever.
The best graphics in history with Matrix Awakens!
While the excitement of The Matrix Resurrections, which will be released in the coming weeks, is already all around, a technology demo that will shake the game world has been released from The Matrix front. Unreal Engine 5, which was introduced in 2020 with a technology demo shot on PS5 and in real time, continues to increase its impressiveness after 1.5 years.
The 29GB tech demo of The Matrix Awakens runs in real time on both Xbox Series X and PS5. It features Keeanu Reeves as she begins her journey into the Matrix and the unforgettable, ‘Wake Up, Neo! The technology demo that we started to watch in front of a written computer becomes unbelievable after a while. We witness a simulation of reality with the characters’ faces, facial expressions, eyes and mouth movements.
The demo, which was prepared jointly with the employees of the Unreal Engine 5 department of Epic Games, by names such as John Gaeta, Kim Libreri, Jerome Platteaux, George Borshukov and Michael Gay, who also worked in the visual effects team of the last movie, after a while, puts you in the middle of the action and especially in the second movie. This time, we have the chance to experience scenes similar to highway scenes one-on-one while we are in control.
After the demo ends, the game leaves you with real-time open world gameplay and city structure. Let’s remind again; Everything you play or watch in the demo shows the hardware capacities of Xbox Series X and PS5. In this sense, it will be possible for us to see a game with such graphics and gameplay in our current generation.
Without further ado, let’s leave you with this amazing gameplay video:
