A Horizon-Style Combat Scene Made with Blueprints in UE5

Have a look at this combat showcase of a tribal archery protagonist hitting enemies, including muscular monsters and deers, from a work-in-progress project by Reddit user Dry-Statistician-684: 

The project was created using Blueprints of Unreal Engine 5 by this solo developer, who has been working on it for about a year and a half. The footage features a beautiful icy environment covered with snow. The combat occurs around a frozen lake with nice and vivid cracks. Other than the combat, in the last few seconds, we can see the protagonist walk to a chest to receive items. 

The developer shares a bit more about the game’s development, saying that some free assets, such as the characters, buildings, rocks, trees, and prop models, were used. However, they worked on the entire gameplay completely from scratch, which includes “health, damage, quest system, projectiles, different items like gold, arrow drops, potions, etc. Ai behavior trees, perception system, animation blueprints, physics assets.”

There isn’t much information about this project yet, nor is there a Steam page. But we’ll follow up if there is major progress made and shared by the developer.
