The next game from the creators of INSIDE and Limbo, it seems, is now developed on Unreal Engine 5

The next game of Playdead, known for releasing grim adventure games in the two-dimensional perspective Limbo and INSIDE, seems to be based on the Unreal Engine 5.

This curious detail was considered by fans on the official website of the developers.

Now Playdead is in the search for new employees, one of whom will be involved in the work on the virtual environment — he will have to cooperate with artists, adjust the sequence of visual solutions, as well as optimize the result under the conditions of work with Unreal Engine 5.

The information about the engine here is key — it has not been mentioned before. Despite the fact that the new Playdead project has been under development for several years, little is known about it.

Players are promised a sci-fi setting, a gloomy atmosphere and large locations available for study.

In terms of overall structure and style, the project will be markedly different from Limbo and INSIDE. Read more about it here.

The release date of the new Playdead game remains unknown. Epic Games will be the publisher on all platforms.
