The famous game used to create games, Dreams, never ceases to amaze us. After having made it possible to create certain titles inspired by famous licenses such as Wipeout, Metal Gear Solid, Sonic or Silent Hill, the Media Molecule software is illustrated today with the reproduction of a technical demo. And not just any, since it is the ultra realistic demo of the station made by Lorenzo Drago. Spoiler: the result is impressive.
A little over a week ago, we introduced you a technical demo made with the Unreal Engine 5 which had amazed everyone. Designed by 3D artist Lorenzo Drago, it reproduced a train station in Toyama prefecture in Japan. The posted video displayed near photorealistic content with very detailed textures and many details in the modeling. The artist nevertheless specified that the short film published was not in real time: it was a high definition rendering running at 7fps.
Recently, an artist working for Media Molecule, Martin Nebelong, published a video displaying the famous train station in real time, this time not made with the Unreal Engine 5 but with Dreams ! And the least we can say is that the rendering is amazing. Like the original demo, we visited a station day and night, with at one point the beam of a flashlight as the only light source. The illusion of being in front of the level shaped under UE5 is definitely there.
In order to show how he arrived at this stunning result, Martin Nebelong posted a Timelapse on his YouTube account. The opportunity to see Dreams in action once more is to understand why Media Molecule’s title is ideally thought out for 3D artists with its powerful tools, as we explained in our test. Hideo Kojima, visibly impressed by the work done, took the opportunity to publish the short film on his Twitter account.
Dreams, developed by Media Molecule, is available on PlayStation 4. It is also playable on PlayStation 5.
