10 Unreal Engine 5 Games That Will Drop Your Jaw

The Matrix Awakens

Developed by the team behind Unreal Engine 5 themselves alongside other studios such as The Coalition, The Matrix Awakens is less of an actual game rather than a tech demo built to give gamers a sneak peek at the future. That said, it does feature an open-world that players can cause havoc in – so it is definitely worth looking at. The Matrix Awakens uses the newest features of the engine to great effect, from the Metahuman toolbox to create NPCs to ray-traced reflections galore to smooth LoD swapping thanks to Nanite, and so much more. Not to mention a star-studded cast of Keanu Reeves and Carrie Anne-Moss reprising the roles of Neo and Trinity themselves, albeit for a very short duration. It’s available for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, and for the asking price of nothing – it’s definitely worth a try.
