The Matrix Awakens World Premiere Trailer Released, Demo Now Available for PS5 and Xbox Series X

The Matrix Awakens world premiere trailer has been released, with the Unreal Engine 5 demo now available for PS5 and Xbox Series X!

Played it on series s and man that was impressive. PS5 and X would be even better.

Lexreborn2868d ago

This demo was extremely impressive. Yet next year in gaming is looking extremely impressive:

Forspoken looks amazing
Senua is shaping up nicely
Suicide squad looks amazing
God of War 2 is coming
Horizon is coming
Elden rings is coming
Gotham knights is coming

These games alone are going to make 2022 a hit for me.

Plus
Alan wake 2 is intriguing
Wonder Woman is in development

I’m excited for next year in gaming.

SullysCigar868d ago

All of that, plus a next gen VR headset from Sony. Roll on 2022.

Lexreborn2868d ago

You’re right! 2022 is stacked and we know 2023 is going to be equally as amazing. Things are starting to rev up nicely!

NeoGamer232868d ago

After seeing this you can see what the difference between current gen and last gen will be.

You can see a distinct difference between games that ship on last gen consoles and only for current gen consoles. The environment is just way more realistic in current gen consoles.

Lexreborn2868d ago

I liked the demo a lot, the character models of npcs were still a little awkward and the character we play as didn’t seem as detailed as the agents or neo and trinity. But still looked extremely impressive.

Nothing looked clay like which I was surprised about

Einhander1971868d ago

This Engine is a game changer, mind blown by this. This is what PS5 is all about.

SyntheticForm868d ago

This is absolutely next-gen and it's only going to get better.

FortWaba868d ago (Edited 868d ago )

This was jaw-droppingly impressive. Not just the on rails action, but what came after. When they were showing the city, I was thinking "Wow, that's some really nice technology. Imagine an open world game that ever had this kind of visual fidelity. It'll be years though."

Then the camera kept dropping lower and lower until I said (insert Thanos GIF) "Impossible. They wouldn't."

repsahj868d ago

ok im totally impressed!!!

We’re long overdue a new Matrix game but I’m done with Neo and Trinity

Following the announcement of The Matrix 5, a new Matrix game on PS5 and Xbox needs to happen, but let's leave Keanu Reeves behind.

That unreal demo was amazing, to bad it was “unreal” and stayed as a proof of concept.

SinisterKieran19d ago

I’d give anything to be able to play the mmo that came out. I was too young and has no computer…

raWfodog19d ago

I would love to see a new matrix game. That is indeed a game world that has plenty of story and gameplay potential.

ChasterMies19d ago

I’ll only play a Matrix game if it has more Neo and Trinity. I saw the 4th Matrix movie and can’t tell you the names of anyone else.

bloop18d ago

I think I managed about 30 minutes of Resurrections before turning it off, which is bad considering the original Matrix is probably my favourite movie of all time.

-Foxtrot18d ago

I think the only good thing about the 4th film was the fact these characters came back

I just wish they managed to create a story where Morpheus could have came back aswell, even if he tried to rescue them and he also got captured so he didn't age.

anast19d ago

Trust me, I would let this one go. There is no way any available studio that can work on this game would make a good game.

isarai18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

This, i don't think anyone has the talent for this kind of game anymore, and the few that might are under the influence of live service pushing bosses.

anast18d ago

True, or working on things.

Xbox Series S vs Ray Tracing: The story so far

The Xbox Series S is, on paper, every bit as feature-rich as the Series X. It's based on the same fundamental RAM, storage, CPU, and GPU technologies - which of course means that it is ray tracing capable. You can absolutely get RT acceleration on the system, just like any other RDNA 2-based hardware platform.

The S is a pretty impressive machine. I could see MS transitioning it to a more portable form factor if they so desired. Maybe even team up with Valve to make steamdeck 2 essentially a portable Series S.

Tacoboto455d ago

I don't know why Microsoft hasn't taken any initiative in making a more gaming-friendly Surface Laptop. They had those 1-2 cycles with one or two AMD variants but those aren't part of the lineup anymore. AMD announced new mobile chips with massive battery life and Surface hardware financials are nosediving - in the face of Steam Deck, Windows on ARM continuing to be ASS, and Nvidia gaming laptops ever growing, MS could really use a shakeup.

Mr Logic455d ago

Imagine writing this with 0 knowledge of anything that you're talking about. Please explain how they would "transition" a 100W device into a 15W portable form factor.

darthv72455d ago

...die shrinks tend to increase efficiency and reduce tdp which would result in a more cost effective and portable friendly chip. Reducing the amount of power reduces the amount of heat which reduces the need for the current heat dissipation design which can lead to a reduced overall size and make it more portable.

It's really not that hard to figure out as it has been done for decades with each revision of hardware over the course of a platforms lifecycle.

ChasterMies455d ago

MS will never team up with Valve. They run competing stores on PC. Also, the Series S hardware couldn’t work as a handheld. That giant cooling fan is an indicator of the kind of heat that is pumped out by those chips. I don’t see much investment from Microsoft into ARM based chips and mobile graphics chips.

darthv72455d ago

...well not in its current state. I swear people all of a sudden just forgot how chip technology evolves. Just look at something like the PS2 and PS2 slim. Same tech but they cut the size to 1/4 of the original. If we apply the same logic to something that is digital in nature, the series s can be shrunk down to roughly the same size as the slim ps2 or possibly even smaller. If the PSP is basically a portable PS2 and the Vita a PS3 then why is it so hard to think there could be a portable series s?

I have no doubts about 'could it be done'... the bigger question is 'would it be done'? That is for MS to decide. And looking at the steamdeck for comparison, the deck is pretty much already a portable PS4 so if it had a beefier CPU/GPU (like the Series S) then yes it can be done as a portable. Dont be surprised if steam deck 2 comes out as a 4tf or even 6tf machine. Like i said above, shrinks happen.

darkrider456d ago (Edited 456d ago )

Ray tracing... If the ps5 and series x got problems to have games with rt without huge drops on rez.... Why even talk about a console that most games run at dynamic 1080p... Playing games at 540p with Ray tracing like the matrix demo or fortnite... That's why almost all games don't use on the s...

Elda455d ago

The very reason I traded in my Series S for the Series X.

darkrider455d ago

Huge upgrade. Good move. Get ready for next Gen gaming and forza will be the top dog in terms of ray tracing.

If you play in big TV, having a series x is the best choice between those two consoles.

You can run games at lower graphic settings on Xbox Series S, but do you want to? For $100 more, you can buy a PS5 digital that has better graphics and more hard drive space. When it comes to game consoles, less is not more. Save your pennies.

Is The Matrix Awakens Becoming a Full Game?

Theories are being exchanged as The Matrix Awakens is being delisted on 9 July 2022, without reason. Could a full game be on the way?

As much as i would love that, i doubt it.

RaidenBlack658d ago

It would require a quite a development resource and time investment though to get a fully fleshed out Matrix game based on the demo's structure.
Hence yeah, highly doubt it.

neutralgamer1992658d ago

Yes epic games have the resources to make it happen

But real question is after the graphical wow factor how good of a actual fun game would it be since it's most likely on rails ?

Mobis-New-Nest658d ago

They should remake Path of Neo with the graphic power of The Matrix Awakens. It was the best Matrix game I ever played and would easily get 5 million pre-orders and an additional 10 million in sales on its Day 1 release.

Michiel1989657d ago

Matrix Online was also pretty good, but for a very niche audience.

babadivad657d ago

After watching Matrix 4, I'm all set on anything Matrix.

DivineHand125657d ago (Edited 657d ago )

You actually enjoyed the 4th movie?

porkChop658d ago

No. It's just a tech demo and that's all it was supposed to be. I'm surprised they're delisting it though.

RaidenBlack658d ago

That's the strange part. Why delist such a thing?

RPGer658d ago

Maybe the Movie sucked, maybe they are sicker with modders, maybe Licence thing, maybe they just don't want people insist for a Matrix game?

Maybe

MasterChief3624658d ago

Licensing is a very fickle thing that is unpredictable to those that are unfamiliar with the terms of each case-by-case license handed out. It seems quite likely that this is a licensing mandate.

RaidenBlack658d ago

Kojima is a big fan of the Matrix movie franchise and was tweeting out quite a few tweets before the new Matrix movie.
And this all happened before the Matrix Awakens reveal.
And I was thinking then, a Kojima directed Matrix game would be just too good. The perfect pair even?

Omegasyde658d ago

Matrix Demo > Matrix awakens.

Movie sucked.

RaidenBlack658d ago

I think you're referring to Matrix Resurrections.

MizHDTV658d ago

It’s one of the biggest disappointments I ever had going to the movies
I absolutely hated that movie
It made part three good

Omegasyde657d ago

Raiden you are absolutely correct, and I stand corrected.

Movie was so horrible I forgot the subtitle.

FIELDMARSHALL_P657d ago

It was fine to watch while smoking Blu ts and sipping Ciroc.

Would be odd to see “The coalition” make multiplatform game. I don’t think the coalition will ever make a multiplatform game. I think it’s because it served its purpose already and no point to keep it up. I seriously doubt this will become a game.

Profchaos658d ago

Yeah I'd like it to happen but I highly doubt it
