Titanic - recreated using Unreal 4 engine

[FourWheelDrift]

It's a first person action adventure game including the sinking with full interaction with passengers and crew. Almost all of the ship is being modelled (only the bits humans can't get into will be omitted). As an accurate recreation it's historically interesting and great for having a look around.

Showing some of the work so far - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7K3o_eis40

I'm not sure it appeals to me as a game, but I'm planning on getting a rift eventually,..it might be pretty cool with VR just to explore the ship. Maybe if they offer, just take a tour as a game mode it will work. I'd buy that.

Do you get the option to chuck DiCaprio in the boiler?

Do we get to draw Kate Winslet?

I think this might be a remake or similar of the previous Titanic game from many many years ago?

I sank (boom boom tish) quite a few hours into that one!

Demo 2 released, new areas to have a look around, aft decks more floors, veranda cafe. It really is a stunning recreation.

Funnily enough I was reading about Titanic last night. In particularly the fact (which I never knew before) that the SS Californian was something like under 20 miles away at the time of the sinking, could see the lights of the ship, and the distress flares, and decided it was probably nothing! They could have been there way before it sake apparently.

I'm sure I saw on a documentary that just before the Titanic struck the iceberg the telegraph operators told the operators on the Californian to "get off the line" so to speak so they could relay more messages as they got paid per message they sent so the Californian turned off it's radio and the rest is history.

On their youtube channel they have 2 realtime sinking videos now with text explaining what's going on and narration.

Titanic sinking demo, 2hrs 40mins - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs9w5bgtJC8

New video, the Titanic's "safer" sister ship, Brittanic that sank after striking a mine during WWI whilst in the Agean Sea it went down quicker in 1hr 3mins - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qr5HmOJtgSI

Brittanic is the largest passenger vessel wreck.

And just in case you didn't know, in the videos hard to starboard back then meant a turn to port and vice versa. Think of a tiller on a small boat, if you push it right and the boat will turn left.
