Spider-Man Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo Truly Brings New York to Life
PC users can download a Spider-Man tech demo running in Unreal Engine 5 that truly brings to life the city of New York. For the last year or so, talented fans have created spectacular tech demos with Epic Games' latest technology. An Unreal Engine 5 Superman project recently took the internet by storm, for example, showcasing what an open-world game starring the Last Son of Krypton could entail. Others have also taken it upon themselves to remake parts of older games in UE5, including titles such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and the original Metal Gear Solid.
Epic Games showcased Unreal Engine 5 for the first time in May 2020, offering a glimpse at a desert-set tech demo running on the PlayStation 5.

Thus far, Fortnite counts as the UE5-powered game on the market.
