Outside of actual video games, a lot of creative people have been able to make some incredible stuff in Unreal Engine, oftentimes using Unreal Engine to recreate popular games like Among Us, Metal Gear Solid, and Half-Life 2. Now amateur creators have even more tools to work with, as loads of assets from the indie darling What Remains of Edith Finch are now available for anyone to use free of charge.
Epic Games announced today that Giant Sparrow’s award-winning exploration of death, memories, and family has been added to the Unreal Marketplace Collection, an initiative that effectively gives away large amounts of official Unreal Engine game assets. Before What Remains of Edith Finch, it’s been used to make assets from older Epic titles like Infinity Blade and Paragon available to all Unreal creators.
Thanks to a partnership with Giant Sparrow and publisher Annapurna Interactive, the Collection now includes over 3,000 high quality meshes, textures and materials from the game that anyone can download. These cover the Finch family’s home, complete with each member’s distinctive room and furnishings, along with a few other environments from What Remains of Edith Finch’s memorable flashback sections.
This is just one example of the ways people have been able to use Unreal Engine for more than official video game development, such as how Unreal Engine has been used on TV shows like The Mandalorian and Westworld. Better yet, Epic Games says the Giant Sparrow/Annapurna partnership is the first in a series of collaborations with “teams across the community,” so it looks like creators will be able to download assets from other games on the Unreal Marketplace in the near future.
What Remains of Edith Finch is available for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
