MAWI United has released an amazing next-gen tech demo for Unreal Engine 5.2 that you can download right now. According to the team, this demo features over 140 custom scanned trees and plants. All assets are highres Nanite meshes with 8K textures (though the demo has limited this to 4K).
The demo also features dynamic player interaction with plants and a custom wind system. The rainforest also has different sub biomes like deep jungle, meadow areas, mangrove swamps and rocky slopes. Thus, you’ll encounter a nice variety of environments.
The Tropical Rainforest Demo offers two variations. The first one is in day time and the other is during a thunderstorm with heavy rain, lightning and water running down the trees and leaves.
You can download the demo from here. Those interested can also download MAWI United’s previous UE5 demos from here, here, here, and here.
Lastly, you can find below some videos that showcase its different sub biomes.
Have fun!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
