In September 2022, we shared a fan video, showing off Angelina Jolie from Tomb Raider: Lara Croft in Unreal Engine 5. And earlier this week, the artist shared a new cinematic video, this time featuring both Angelina Jolie and Christoph Walz.
In this cinematic teaser, Angelina Jolie plays Lara Croft and Christoph Walz plays Mr Von Croy. Moreover, to create these characters, the artist did not use any AI or DEEPFAKE tools for the creation of the assets, the environment, the faces of these two actors and the audio.
Now while Lorenzo did not use any AI tools, he did use assets from Megascan. To create the characters, the artist used UE5’s Metahuman, alongside Texturing XYZ for the skin texturing and the hair from the 3D scan store.
As you will see, this cinematic is a bit short. Still, it looks lovely to me, and it sports some truly amazing visuals. Also, both the in-game 3D models for Angelina Jolie and Christoph Walz look like the actors themselves. So, kudos to the artist for making them look this good.
Before closing, there are currently no plans to release this project to the public. As you will see in the video, there is a “game” menu. However, there isn’t in reality any game. From what we know, there aren’t even any settings to tweak. So, don’t get your hopes up. This is just a concept video and nothing more.
Speaking of Unreal Engine 5, you should also check out the following fan projects. For instance, you can find some faithful remasters of Dark Souls and Dark Souls 3, which are super cool. A few days ago, we also shared an amazing remake of Toy Story 2. Then there’s this fantastic fan remake of STALKER that’s worth a look. Then there’s this fantastic fan remake of STALKER that’s worth a look. Oh, and don’t miss the Grand Theft Auto 6 fan concept in UE5; it’s pretty impressive. Earlier this month, we also shared fan remakes of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and GTA 3, as well as an Uncharted fan game. We also have a fan remaster of Unreal Gold in UE5. You should also watch the full-on remake video for Final Fantasy 9.

Well, since they’re all really cool, we suggest giving them a watch.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
