Unreal 4 Demo Shows Us What A Kitchen Looks Like

If you don't think that games might someday look like real life then this video, which recreates a Paris apartment, might make you rethink that. This might be the most impressive gameplay demo you've ever seen and it has absolutely no action.

We've seen some impressive Unreal Engine demos in the past, and we've seen the tech used to recreate some cool game-related locales, but we haven't seen it used to create something this lifelike before. This demo, called Unreal Paris, was created by CG designer Dereau Benoît. If he doesn't have a game design job already, he should.

 

Our Take
We don't think that current PC or console hardware could handle games that looked like this, but it's only a matter of time before they can, and it's nice to see just how far Unreal's engine can be pushed.
