It appears that The Matrix fans have something else to look forward to outside of The Matrix Resurrections. As audiences wait for the fourth Matrix film to drop in theaters, Epic Games and the original movie team worked together to create The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal Engine 5 Experience.
What is The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal Engine 5 experience?
The Matrix Awakens is a tech demo that's exclusive to the Xbox Series S/X and the PlayStation 5. It's described as a "boundary-pushing cinematic and real-time tech demo" that Epic Games created using Unreal Engine 5 in collaboration with the original members of The Matrix movie. It's effectively a showcase of just how far video game graphics have come over the years.
The Matrix Awakens is not necessarily a traditional game, but more of a playable demo with photorealistic graphics.
