PixelOpus (Concrete Genie) collaborating with Sony Pictures Animation on their next game, which will run on Unreal Engine 5
- Thread starter nolifebr
- Start date
Given how much Unreal has boasted about 'film quality assets' in the UE5 demos, this could be a pretty spectacular looking project.
Uhh… this is very exciting?? Spiderverse, The Mitchells Vs. The Machines… Sony Pictures Animation has been on a tear lately
I loved Concrete Genie, so I'm looking forward to this one. Interesting that they're collaborating with SPA - curious as to how that is going to work, but good to see Sony leveraging its entertainment assets.
Has PixelOpus been growing or are they still less than 20 developers?

Wonder if that means they're adapting some Sony Animation title or if they're just sharing technology
No, they're a tiny studio so they licensed UE4 for Concrete Genie and are now using UE5 for whatever this turns out to be.
What people forget is that a lot of devs from PixelOpus (and Sony San Mateo) are coming from LucasArts. Dominic Robilliard himself was a Creative Director of Star Wars 1313.
Their team has a huge potential.

I could be wrong tho, but I remember them saying that their next game would be their biggest yet because the studio was growing a lot
If that's right then it is really good news, as they're going through Bend Studio-esque curve. Their next game should be spectecular.
A game with visuals similar to Into the Spider-Verse/The Mitchells would be very interesting, I'm growing fond of that style.
Concrete Genie was really cool, can't wait to see their next title and damn that's an exciting collaboration thinking about the visuals and animation for their next game.
I would have bet on them going down the Mm route and choosing to remain a small studio. Rapid growth, and big technical collaborations with a top tier Animation studio are welcome surprises. If this new game is as much as a leap, as Concrete Genie was from Entwined, yeah, this could be their big break.
Imagine a Spider-verse game which is aimed for younger audiences recreates the style of the movie. Insane sales if true.
It's happening
I want something closer aesthetically to this. I love this movie
We already have a spider-man game which borrows heavily from spider-verse
Now I am worried about VASG, when will they make their very own game?
Yeah, but i love everything by phil lord and chris miller.
If they could get one of the writers...oh man!
It means they're going to set a new standard in A/V for games.
We don't need a second Sony studio doing Spiderman games. One is more than enough! Hope it's a new ip
Pixelopus my new bias.Ah yeah KPop Demon Slaying here we come.
Well I was going to say they forget to mention PS4 too (after the recent fiasco) but I saw UE5 and I got some relief that it will be PS5 only this time.
Then again UE5 can work on PS4, so...

PixelOpus is too small For such a huge licence.
Spiderman = Insomniac.
Except if it would be a VR project.
