The upcoming first-person action role-playing game Unawake uses groundbreaking technology to create emotional and lifelike facial expressions.
The independent development team RealityArts Studio and publisher Toplitz Productions are proud to announce that the upcoming action-adventure You are a woman (PC) will use NVIDIA's revolutionary Audio2Face technology for facial animations.
With the integration of Audio2Face, Unawake uses so-called generative AI to convert speech output into emotional and lifelike facial expressions.
The incorporation of this technology, demonstrated at the NVIDIA booth at GDC in San Francisco this year, will put its distinctive stamp on the immersive feel and storytelling as the journey into the dark world of Unawake begins later this year.
“We are proud and honored that NVIDIA has chosen Unawake to showcase its AI tools,” said Ismail Kemal Ciftcioglu, co-founder of RealityArts and game director of Unawake. “In development, Audio2Face saves us a lot of time that we can focus on telling the story and delivering the best possible gaming experience. We would like to thank you for the opportunity to accompany a new era of content creation!”
This milestone marks the next step in the progression the highly anticipated first-person action role-playing game has made since its last public appearance during Steam Scream Fest 2023.
By collecting and processing feedback from thousands of players, RealityArts has not only made important progress in terms of Unawake's game mechanics, but also worked on the graphics and, among other things, incorporated Epic's MetaHuman technology and Audio2Face and generally massively increased the content.
A demonstration of the technology can be seen in the following video:
