Example of a good looking unity game?

pangaea · May 2016

Is there an example of a good looking (modern) unity game. It just seems like everyone in 3D Art Showcase & Critique uses UE4. You would think it would be 50/50 in this forum since unity is really popular in general. In most gamejams there is a huge bias towards unity.

Ori and the Blind Forest doesn't look too shabby.

I think quite a lot of studios are using it, Im generalising but I think its mostly mobile or f2p games, so maybe its less about the shiny prettyness that ue4 offers but it is capable of that. It is a bit easier to get pretty results from ue4 than it is from unity in my opinion and thats why artists like using it, at least ue4 has a proper material editor.

Check out their recent showcase scenes (the viking village, and that short movie they made)?

As part of your question you noted that it seems everyone in 3D Art Showcase & Critique uses UE4 to showcase their work, and you'll find that it's largely because as an artist in UE4, you have a lot of control over your materials that you just don't have in unity, without using either a plugin(normally purchased), or coding the material.

So it's not that unity can't render great looking assets/games(it's certainly can), it's just easier from an artists point of use to create their materials in UE4 with it's node based material editor.

Maybe not exactly recent but Crasher is one of the best-looking games I've seen for Unity.

Yooka laylee looked pretty good when they were only a few months into making it, and that was over a year ago

Have a look at "Downfall of the state" http://downfallofthestate.co.uk/
and to "shadow tactics" http://madewith.unity.com/games/shadow-tactics
