Working on Industry Changing Projects

‘The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal Engine 5 Experience,’ is a boundary-pushing cinematic and open-world interactive tech demo that set new standards for the entertainment industry. IO, one of the main characters in the demo is a MetaHuman, and stands side by side with digital doubles of Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss – a true testament of how MetaHumans can share the stage with Hollywood celebrity digital doubles. With MetaHumans, 3Lateral team created a new industry standard for digital humans.

Campus/Next Chapter

We are delighted to share a new chapter in the planning and construction of our upcoming campus in Novi Sad. With the submission of the urban development plan, we have provided additional insight into the new R&D hub designed to advance digital humans technologies within Epic Games.

This is an important milestone towards the completion of the Novi Sad campus by 2024, as well as our efforts to support the local ecosystem and create an inspiring space for our team to learn, create and innovate. We are excited to expand our presence here, and deepen our relationships with creators, researchers and educators interested in Unreal Engine and digital human-related technologies.
