Available for pre-load for a few days now, the Unreal Engine 5 demo is... The matrix awakens now available worldwide.
The video showcases, among other things, ultra-realistic models of Neo and Trinity, and Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne, respectively, demonstrating the capabilities of Unreal Engine 5. To further emphasize this, some impressive statistics have been released.
According to this, the city is 4.138 km wide and 4.968 km long, with an area of 15,79 km² and a circumference of 14,519 km. It also depicts 45.073 parked cars, of which 38.146 are drivable or partially destructible. Equally impressive are the more than 7.000 buildings, which are composed of billions of polygons.

The The Matrix Awakens – Unreal Engine 5 Demo is Free on the PlayStation Store available.
The demo shows what the PS5 is capable of graphically. I'm curious to see what else the Unreal Engine 5 will be able to do over time.
Looks better than Cyberpunk.
It has nothing to do with cyberpunk.
