MetaHumans everywhere

Start your MetaHumans in Unreal Engine and take them anywhere you want to go. With MetaHuman, you can deploy your digital humans wherever you see fit, using the game engine or rendering environment of your choice—from off-the-shelf software to proprietary pipelines. 

AAA games

With MetaHuman, you can use scan or sculpt data to create unique hyperreal or stylized hero characters based on real people or your own designs. Then, harness every nuance of actors’ performances to give them the compelling qualities that will keep your players coming back for more. Plus, create a near infinite variety of realistic NPCs in minutes in MetaHuman Creator.

Indie games

When time is money and money is tight, MetaHuman means you can create your own great-looking, believable characters without having loads of experience or multi-year development cycles, or pick up ready-made MetaHumans, outfits, and grooms on Fab. And you can animate their facial performances in real time just from your webcam, phone, or even audio.

Film & television

For digital humans that will stand up to close-ups, MetaHuman gives you the ability to create truly bespoke characters of the highest quality, including from existing scans or sculpts. And with MetaHuman Animator, you can recreate every nuance of an actor’s performance. You can even directly edit the mesh and expressions in Maya, and craft custom grooms in Houdini.

Broadcast & live events

With MetaHuman Animator, you can drive your character’s facial animation from just a phone, webcam, or even audio at a quality that will let your audience feel the connection, in real time. It’s ideal for mixed-media live events and live-to-air broadcasts. And social media influencers can recreate themselves or step into another skin, and turn around their responses in minutes.

Fashion

Showcase your latest collection as soon as it’s been designed: you don’t even need to make the clothing! Create models with any look you want, and the diversity your market demands. Set constraints for bust, waist, hips, leg length, and many more measurements for the online retail space. And get your brand right on trend with a virtual avatar as your ambassador.

Real-world interactions

When it comes to getting down to business, bots are highly efficient—but many consumers resent the lack of human interaction. With Metahuman, it’s easy to create digital assistants, receptionists, or concierges with the realism to be relatable as they triage incoming issues, direct your queries to the right place, and generally make for a more empathetic experience.
