Breakdown: Setting Up a Genshin Impact-Style Shader in Unreal Engine 5

3D Artist HyeungKun Park, known to many for creating highly-realistic 3D materials using Substance 3D Designer, has recently shared an in-depth breakdown that thoroughly explains how to set up a non-photorealistic Genshin Impact-style shader in Unreal Engine 5.

Inspired by the techniques shown previously by Ben Ayers and Adrian Mendez, the breakdown walks us through the working process behind creating a great anime-like shader, with HyeungKun showcasing the entire workflow from start to finish, demonstrating how various maps were set up in Designer, showing how the outline was created, and much more.
