From hardware-accelerated ray-tracing to Nanite to photogrammetry to many more, the game has no shortage of impressive visual features that we are starting to see pop up in next-gen games. As a result, players are treated to the same high-quality assets and elegant streaming technology featured in the demo – alongside all of the visual features that Unreal Engine 5 will be offering to developers. Given that this game uses The Matrix Awakens as its basis, it shares the same open world. As is clarified on the game’s Itch.io page, the developer has refrained from creating an actual Superman character model so as to avoid any copyright infringements. The modder used that project and built character models, flight systems, a decent move set, and animations for a character that is representative of Superman. With the recent launch of the engine, Epic Games released The Matrix Awakens‘ City – a free-to-download sample Unreal Engine 5 project on the Epic Games Store.

Tyson-Butler-Boschma used the free-to-play demo The Matrix Awakens as a basis of development for this mod. The Superman Flight Experience is built using Epic Games’ latest Unreal Engine 5. Developed by Tyson-Butler-Boschma, this game might not be expansive in its scope – but is most definitely a sneak peek into what a proper next-gen Superman open-world game could be like. I am, of course, talking about the Superman Flight Experience mod that has been rapidly gaining traction over the last few days on social media. Today, we will be looking at what could be considered one of the most impressive renditions of Superman in a video game. However, most would also agree that almost all of these games have failed to hit the mark in certain aspects – and fans are still left wanting for a proper well-rounded experience starring The Man of Tomorrow. Between these upcoming AAA releases and the massive back-catalog of games featuring DC’s biggest superheroes, there has been a significant void for a AAA game starring Superman with open-world and free-roam elements.Īs most would already know, many developers have tried their hands at developing a Superman game with the likes of Superman 64 on the N64, Superman: The Man of Steel on the Xbox, and many more.

Then, there’s Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League which will be coming in 2023 followed by Monolith’s upcoming Wonder Woman game which doesn’t have a release date as of yet.

Firstly, there’s Gotham Knights – which releases in October of this year. Fans of DC superheroes have a lot to look forward to in the coming months.
