About the project

Meta Studio, a renowned creative agency specializing in immersive experiences, embarked on an ambitious project called Viking VR in order to showcase some Unreal Engine 5 VR possibilities to the public. Inspired by the fascination with Vikings and their rich culture and lore, Meta Studio aimed to transport users back in time to experience the essence of Viking village life. The project spanned 4 months and showcased Meta Studio's expertise in creating realistic and captivating virtual reality (VR) environments

Objective

At MetaStudio, we value creativity, collaboration, and customer satisfaction above all else. This is reflected in everything we do – from the way we approach projects to how we communicate with our clients. Our goal is not only to meet our clients' expectations but to exceed them, providing them with solutions that truly make a difference in their businesses.

Objective

The primary goal of Viking VR was to create an immersive experience that would connect people with the Viking culture and provide a profound sense of time-travel. Meta Studio meticulously crafted the Viking village, characters, and landscapes to ensure a truly authentic and captivating experience for users.

We understand the importance of textures in creating a sense of realism in virtual environments, which is why we invest time and effort into perfecting every pixel.

Technology and Tools

To bring Viking VR to life, Meta Studio leveraged the power of Unreal Engine 5, the latest version of the acclaimed game engine. The team focused on maximizing realism, utilizing tools such as 3ds Max and Maya for modeling and animation, Substance Painter for texturing assets, and Quixel Megascans for props and textures. They also incorporated the foliage provided by Unreal Engine 5 to enhance the visual appeal of the environment.

Custom Visual Effects

In addition to the meticulous attention to detail, Meta Studio created custom visual effects (VFX) to enhance the immersion of the Viking VR experience. They developed realistic fire effects for torches in the village and implemented lifelike water effects, among other VFX elements. These additions further elevated the authenticity and engagement of the virtual environment.

Results

Viking VR proved to be a resounding success, achieving its objective of taking users on an unforgettable journey back in time. Meta Studio's dedication to realism and attention to detail captivated users, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the Viking culture. The project received widespread acclaim for its stunning visuals, seamless user experience, and the level of historical accuracy achieved.
