This video served as environmental artist and technical art director at DICE developing game "Battlefield" seriesRense de BoerIt was created as a demo image of Mr. Project '4K Experience'.


According to Kotaku of game related media, "Building a 4K experience" is created using the technique called photography modeling technology. Photo modeling technology is simply a technique of generating high resolution 3D mesh based on photographs, and the game "Star Wars battle frontEvenIt was used. I take pictures of the model of the image I want to create and incorporate it into the game engine, but I heard that this image seems to have a tremendously large number of photos taken.


It is a quality that I could mistake as a live-action picture, but I am surprised that it is being processed in real-time at 4K resolution.


According to Rense de Boer, Building a 4K experience focuses on only the superficial part of the image, and it seems that full-scale development will be advanced in the future. When you play the game with this quality video, I am wondering how much immersion is born.
