Unreal Engine 5 is the motor of Epic compatible con PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PC and Steam Deck, which is already being used in projects and some upcoming ones will be dazzling; but today’s overcomes yet another barrier.
A video clip with this graphics engine from the parents of Fortnite in the first person shows all players that the graphics aspect blows their minds with its completely realistic appearance.
According to the author, he has used a technique called photogrammetry, aerial photography is used to obtain elevated models and it is a basic reference for cartography and obtaining geographic information in general.
This is in line with the current use of AI, the sky is just the earth’s limit for any creator aspiring to develop their own movie, game or other project from scratch.
In fact UE5 is one of the most popular free linear content creation tools, games like The Matrix Awakens, Tekken 8 and The Witcher Remake are creating with Unreal Engine 5.
But this graphics engine has also served other artists such as the one at the train station and the one at the start of Metal Gear Solid is proof that almost unreal things can be created.

This time it is a short of almost 2 minutes of the artist 3Dystopia in the first person and walking the streets of a French city. It combines perspective of a real person walking and seeing their eyes before cutting to real video.
“Publishing a real world to UE5 to create a super small metaverse (…) based on 1500 photos to recreate the alley; complete photogrammetry from 6 thousand videos”, is what the video description says.
“It’s taken me 10 days, but I’ve spent almost half of it thinking and learning how to render the environment better and each one is a new challenge.
This 3D scan was not easy, I spent many hours cleaning up all the messy surfaces on top because I took photos only from the ground and had to rebuild all the details on the ceiling,” he continued.
It is clear that by now Unreal Engine 5 has no ceiling to create scenarios so realistic that they scare and as if they were video games on consoles and PC.
