Awesome list, I'm definitely excited for Kingdom come deliverance 2, s.t.a.l.k.e.r shadow of chernobyl, Unrecord and of course GTA 6, it looks amazing!
UE5 looks nice, but what iam interested is the advertised added efficency and lower hardware usage while having those graphics. Graphics are nice but if they only run on a 5090 its not fun...
Or progression of enemy AI or such. I'm mildly frustated with how people obsess over graphics while gameplay and stuff improves little to nothing or in some cases even gets more boring and shallow.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is why you support good indie games. They made a really good game, now they have the money to make a great game and it is thanks to everyone who supported it! Keep supporting good indie games, stop pre-ordering AAA titles and the future will be bright!
Very true word's. I'm still enjoying it very much on my Playstation 4 Pro and will get the Switch version for portability and to further support the devs. ☺️
Curious, when an indie becomes a triple A, should we then boycott it? Just wondering what the rules are here. You think the big guys got there on day one? Nope, they started out as what? Indies.
It seems like all of Kojima's team has always pushed the boundary for video game graphics, starting from MGS2 to Now, his team have perfected the mix between realism and artstyle.
I do enjoy games that go for realism but I find myself more so returning to the ones that are more stylized or use the realism for more fantastical applications like Alan Wake 2.
It just works honestly most people want to escape reality by jumping into a game and seeing things real life wouldn’t be able to accomplish or things that just wouldn’t happen. it’s more satisfying and adventurous basically.
Instinction looks like a game where you would be able to learn, by positively identifying edible plants, but since it's set during the dinosaurs, I don't know if someone would gain real life experience or knowledge with a game like Instinction. It sounds cool, if I get to identify plants and food sources / medicine sources. Honestly, there should be a game in VR where you can explore different terrain and climates, and you have all real world plants and whatnot to document and you 100% an area when you've logged, say 90% of species....since 100% would be too much to ask, and no one's done that before. Whatever the real world percentage is, it should be similar to that in terms of what can be identified and cataloged
I am not going base my expectations of GTA6 on the trailer. Remember when they did the same thing with GTA5, and it turned out what we saw in the trailer was mostly just from the opening cinematic? I'm not saying the game will be bad, I will definitely be playing it myself, but just don't expect everything to look exactly like the trailer.
Its funny how people are getting surprised or even don't believe the realistic look of some games but in like 50 years or so, most games will probably be ultra realistic and will be the norm haha. Technology is only improving at a fast rate now. Only a matter of time until we get VR stuff that is very realistic and then we all turn into a 'ready player one' type life haha 😄
Unless it violates the laws of physics, then In 50 years will be in the matrix. VR will not see much in 10 years, since there is almost no investment. It's stalled for an unknown period.
Ive noticed a lot of disconnection recently between the games and the journalism. Not sure if something has changed or im just noticing it more. Anyone else feel this?
Its a shasme that unrecord got so much attention that some devs did try to really just copy paste it and lunched it before Unrecord. Just to get the hype and the money.
i need to say, these kind of graphics are possible for the last 5-7 years, weve had high res textures for a long time, weve had high detail models for a long time.. the only thing that ALL game devs did wrong was fuck up colour correction. every game is oversaturated and too bright. If you use some game filters from Nvidia experience in game and tone down saturation and gamma and brightness, then add a slight blue hue you can get games to look nearly exactly as Unrecord and Bodycam. With like 10 minutes of tinkering you can convert any game to that level of "graphics".
A good art style will always beat realistic graphics in my opinion. It’s just more interesting and memorable (Borderlands, Fallout, old cod, battlefront 1, Arkham knight, etc)
Rockstar are good at using style. Max Payne 3 has enough detail that the cartoony fidelity makes it timeless. Same with capcoms re2 remake. They use detail to achieve realism but still stylise everything just enough.
Did you notice that Unrecord and Bodycam use similar graffiti on the walls. In fact, if you freeze frame at around 6:42 of Unrecord and 10:25 of Bodycam, you see Identical graffiti (the word SMOKY). Maybe Unrecord and Bodycam are related.
It been said already my I'm saying it anways. Kingdom of Deliverance 2! Edit: 1953: Rise of Hydra is also on console. Not just PC. Project M is also on console. At least PS5.
In order for it to be "ultra realistic", you would have to have trouble distinguishing whether it's real life or a game. So newsflash, people have spent the last 35 years saying how each new console has "ultra realistic graphics".....none actually were.
Absoulutely a game I look forward to is Kingdome Come: Deliverance 2 I was amazed by the original game, but the game had a lot of room for improvement. Hope they fixed all the glitches from the previous game and that part 2 is coming more polished. Can't wait!
Whilst the visuals may be jaw dropping, we all know that they are going to be provided as an alternative to playability, story, inovation and anything new in the gaming genre......great graphics were never missing, but the cost of now lifelike graphics is always everything else that matters.
Nice list. Good job. I just would like to add that unrecord and bodycam are the only games in this list that are realistic. The rest of them are an improvement from their previous versions with better graphics but no where close to realism. If you take Marvel 1943, the characters look close to realism but the environment and effects look unrealistic. But thanks for the video. I enjoyed it. Cheers.
Worth mentioning that Amy Henning was writing none of the best Uncharted games (2, 4, LL) but she did Forspoken. So dont have high hopes for Rise of the Hydra.
Hey man, I love your videos! Thank you for sharing the list! There are some really good graphics coming soon! Will post couple more comments for specific games shown :)
As a pretty "old" lifelong gamer, going way back to making friends with anyone who had an ATARI 2600, to loitering Radio Shack and being a mall rat who waited for the arcade attendant to turn the power on to the games at 9AM in the mornings. To my very first console the COLECOVISION. Then the NES, to SEGA GENESIS. PS1, PS2, to my very first PC in 2001 and my first online gaming experience with RTCW for 2 straight years. I took a few years off after that. Then I tried GTA SA on an old PS2 a buddy happen to have and realized how fantastic games had increasingly become. Not that I didn't have a clue, but that game really hooked me again. So I finally afforded a PS3 and my first 47 inch Samsung because GTA 4 was out for awhile and I had to try it, and I knew GTA 5 was coming and IT LOOKED INSANE! I was there when it came out on day one! It was a total blast and addiction. Once the single player story was done in the first few days and I plunged into ONLINE, it was mental. Day after day of grinding, exploring, chatting, making Crews, designing my own Crew patch...etc. 2 years had gone by again and it was enough. The only thing I really played after that was hockey with my brother. Got a PS4 to try GTA 5 on it for awhile and that was fun for awhile. But by then I had already amassed many things in the game because of the money glitches in the PS3 version at the beginning. Since I stopped playing I'm amazed at how much more they had added onto the game though! By the time they FINALLY released HEISTS I was already out of it. I've played a couple of games since then on PS like The DIVISION, and GR WILDLANDS. CoD WW2 ..etc. But nothing too serious. I don't play online with strangers at all. And the few friends that also play online are into other games usually. Anyways, long winded point is, seeing videos like these makes an old time game lover like me really want to get into it again. Especially when you see a trailer like GTA6's. But it's all so convoluted now. SO MANY microtransactions, and social media side stuff..etc. And worst of all, the COSTS. My GOD. I don't even have a PS5 yet, or a 4K TV to be able to take advantage of it. And I can completly FORGET about playing anything on PC! That is a whole other price jump! When I see the setups that some of these TWITCH and TH-cam gamers have it boggles the mind how much some of them must be worth! We're probably talking 10K for some of them! OK. That's my 1AM "I'm bored" rant. Thanks for reading, and don't be too harsh on an old guy like me. 😀
Just stick with the PS4, I still do and I have tons of games to still catch up on, it will keep me going until PS6 comes out in 2028. I started with the Colecovision too, than Commodore 64, then 3DO, then Amiga and on and on. But man the games look so good today compared to 40 years ago. But I do miss the old Sierra games, Leisure Suit Larry, Kings Quest, Police Quest
the unreal engine game probably looks just as good as the trailer. the camera positions jazz up the trailer a little but its more trouble to ACTUALLY RENDER the trailer with some path tracer than it would be to just display an animation with real time rendering
I'm not a gamer and came across this by chance. Some of these games are starting to look like actual films. They don't yet look completely real, but I'd imagine in about 20 years, it will be impossible to tell game footage from a film.
I feel like there are no video game graphics that have really mastered the physics of motion, and how it’s affected by gravity. They are pretty much there as far as photo realism goes when it comes to modeling, textures, lighting, reflections, etc. But when you see things moving, especially people, something just seems slightly off. Like everything is a little too floaty. Maybe the higher frame rate (compared to tv shows and movies) has something to do with it.
Your comment comparing the graphics of Bodycam vs Unrecord is a bit weird considering you're comparing a product that actually exists with one that doesn't. I find the whole hype around Unrecord a bit weird considering we are talking about an unknown developer with absolutely no track record and no proposed release date (which doesn't stop scams but this one hasn't even claimed to have a release date planned). I think perhaps we should hold of comparing it to other games until and if a time we can be sure it actually exists.
Very nice, but for me, The Talos Principle II is as realistic as it gets, especially when it comes to that cool-looking Isle of Blessed island in Road to Elysium DLC. That game runs very well in my Ryzen 9 5900X CPU with NVIDIA RTX 4070 GPU at 4K resolution maxed out. Of course, the water splashing effect is missing when running around in shallow waters such as in New Jerusalem.
Unrecord has lots it's advantage though...it may have been the first game to reveal the hyper realistic graphics style, but Bodycam has beaten it to the punch by releasing on STEAM! So, Unrecord will release now with serious competition. It could have been and should have been first, but it's lost the novelty factor, I think. Maybe the fact that it's Single Player will work in it's favour?
Graphics aside, I'm excited for new concepts in the gaming space. We are in sore need of that at the moment, even if they're not the types of games I play.
I've been waiting on consumer hardware to get to this level since 2007; about the time when software solutions existed for photoreal rendering, just not in real time.
The part I struggle with is how they make these Unreal 5 realistic games blurry to look more real. But the real world isn't blurry. Hellblade 2 being a prime example. Walk up to a lichen covered rock, and it looks out of focus.
so the upcoming games are sold more for looks or actual gameplay???

SUPERNATURAL looks like it was inspired by someone saying "let's fill one of those Unreal Marketplace architectural visualisation demos with monsters" and it seems to work quite well 🤣
You hit the nail on the head. It comes down to if the game is fun or not, which can be somewhat subjective. If the game isn't good the graphics are all it has. It'll wind up on a Gameranx video for bad games with good graphics. Here's hoping these are good games.
I'm hoping Stalker 2 lives up to it's name. People love to mod the hell out of Stalker 1 so if the sequel isn't great, long time fans will probably go back to doing that
The more and more we create games with better graphics the more they suck. Back then we were limited with what we could do with graphics and the games were way better .
@@miks8 lawd do I really to do this. Your clearly not a gamer . Or either new to the table. Gaming was different back then, less tech and more games that delivered. I'm outa here .
@@madboi1591 Different/better how? Why is less tech better? Delivered how? You are just begging the question. Im not a gamer because I ask for an explanation instead of immediately agreeing with general opinion? Im an old school gamer, Im stuck at least a decade or more in the past. I have not played any of the new AAAs or big titles newer than 2014. So I dont know. So I ask.
@@miks8 yeah I ain't got time for that. Just do your research instead fam. Just stick to the old games, u will have more fun than the current ones. Current ones are full of hackers and gameplay sucks and boring.
@@miks8 He would probably be trying to tell you that games that care too much about graphics fails in other departments. His argument is probably that since games couldn't impress with today's graphics, they had to make the game as good as it could be -> games were better in the past than it is now. It usually goes like that, but it's a very wrong conclusion for many reasons.
Id say unrecord or Body cam should have been 1 and 2 with GTA 6 in third. Just based on the graphics or reality perception. GTA will be more open and also have more options that give it realism, but based on realistic Graphics, the others are more realistic looking.
Thanks for including the game names in timestamps instead of just numbers. Much appreciated!
They might have to bring back the numbers. Surely game names will lower view time.

Project Laugh, Love, Live looks good.
Unrecord seems to have the same running animation as Still Wakes The Deep. Wonder if that's just stock character run in UE5
Just in time for my afternoon coffee thanks Jake and gameranx
👍
I haven't really been following the games closely, but I thought Unrecord WAS the Bodycam game lol. But it's not and 2 completely different games.....
And both made in France by a bunch of young guys...
Both use UE5 and both use the same stock asset map. That's why it looks like the same game.
Kongdom come deliverance 2 will hopefully be a masterpiece

but the plus side is that the game looked far better in release than in the trailer same fr rdr2
what? gta 5 looks better than its 1st trailer. Same with rdr2
What we saw for GTA6 was not on par with the rest of the game presented here. Hope they do it on purpose
Nevermind how Captain looks, Black Panther looks better than the Black Panther movie's ending 😄
Unrecord looks extraordinary. So much more realistic than the yellow tinge of the other games.
man, i really thought bodycam was the same game
I so hope those body cam games release on ps5 pro. Looking forward to stalker 2 as well.
We only saw the cinematics in this game of marvel 1943. For me, only the trailers say nothing about the final produtc.😐

But I do miss the old Sierra games, Leisure Suit Larry, Kings Quest, Police Quest
Finally reached the point where we can't tell the difference between cinematic trailers and gameplay😮
the unreal engine game probably looks just as good as the trailer. the camera positions jazz up the trailer a little but its more trouble to ACTUALLY RENDER the trailer with some path tracer than it would be to just display an animation with real time rendering
Grass of Genisis should have been on that list. We dont know much about the studio but the game is one of the most realistic ones I have seen so far
GTA6....the world has been waiting for that for 5 years!
I'm not a gamer and came across this by chance. Some of these games are starting to look like actual films. They don't yet look completely real, but I'd imagine in about 20 years, it will be impossible to tell game footage from a film.
Anthem is a good reason to be skeptical of game trailers and gameplay footage
I legit had to stop and look for "Kingdom Of Deliverance II" to see if they were mistaken or I was reading it wrong all this time 😅
I feel like there are no video game graphics that have really mastered the physics of motion, and how it’s affected by gravity. They are pretty much there as far as photo realism goes when it comes to modeling, textures, lighting, reflections, etc. But when you see things moving, especially people, something just seems slightly off. Like everything is a little too floaty. Maybe the higher frame rate (compared to tv shows and movies) has something to do with it.
Your comment comparing the graphics of Bodycam vs Unrecord is a bit weird considering you're comparing a product that actually exists with one that doesn't. I find the whole hype around Unrecord a bit weird considering we are talking about an unknown developer with absolutely no track record and no proposed release date (which doesn't stop scams but this one hasn't even claimed to have a release date planned). I think perhaps we should hold of comparing it to other games until and if a time we can be sure it actually exists.
Let’s achieve 60FPS regardless of platform/hardware as the standard first.
They do not give a shit...buy a 4090 or get out. Pc gaming is richmans world
Very nice, but for me, The Talos Principle II is as realistic as it gets, especially when it comes to that cool-looking Isle of Blessed island in Road to Elysium DLC. That game runs very well in my Ryzen 9 5900X CPU with NVIDIA RTX 4070 GPU at 4K resolution maxed out. Of course, the water splashing effect is missing when running around in shallow waters such as in New Jerusalem.
1:41 our boy Jake needs to get some sleep asap 😂
No matter how real the graphics VR is a must for the immersion factor. Especially once you get the taste of it 2D screens will not do.
Ooooh, Stalker 2 looks fantastic. I want.
Falconnnn please please change the transition screens to dark mode. I literally get blinded everytime I'm watching your videos at night.
Unrecord has lots it's advantage though...it may have been the first game to reveal the hyper realistic graphics style, but Bodycam has beaten it to the punch by releasing on STEAM! So, Unrecord will release now with serious competition. It could have been and should have been first, but it's lost the novelty factor, I think. Maybe the fact that it's Single Player will work in it's favour?
If Gameplay is fun the game will be successful. Graphics are for casuals only. Love Jake and Falcon ❤
We need Dinocrysis remake!!
👍
I think I will die of old age by the time the new Skyrim game comes out.
Graphics aside, I'm excited for new concepts in the gaming space. We are in sore need of that at the moment, even if they're not the types of games I play.
I got 100% on Supernormal and the good ending which is the same dev as supernatural. I think its gonna be the best horror game of the year
0:47 That's METAL GEAR!!! Aaaah Kojima you bastard 😉
I've been waiting on consumer hardware to get to this level since 2007; about the time when software solutions existed for photoreal rendering, just not in real time.
8 and 9 is definitely what I was hoping to see. Great list "Gameranx 🎉👍
Supernatural looks like an interesting game I could try with my girlfriend :)
Also, it would be super fun trying this game in VR !
You should branch out to other genres such as flights sims and racing sims. Amazing graphics releasing in those genres, too.
That dude can take a lot of bullets.. dang.
I keep seeing these ultra realistic games on PC and really want them on PS5
The part I struggle with is how they make these Unreal 5 realistic games blurry to look more real.
But the real world isn't blurry.
Hellblade 2 being a prime example. Walk up to a lichen covered rock, and it looks out of focus.
Bodycam is a crazy good game, I recommend it 👍🏼
finally devs are making good new games and less of those 2d and side scroller or top down games.. we aren't living in arcade machine days anymore
Definitely want to try one of the bodycam shooters
so the upcoming games are sold more for looks or actual gameplay???
SUPERNATURAL looks like it was inspired by someone saying "let's fill one of those Unreal Marketplace architectural visualisation demos with monsters" and it seems to work quite well 🤣
You hit the nail on the head. It comes down to if the game is fun or not, which can be somewhat subjective. If the game isn't good the graphics are all it has. It'll wind up on a Gameranx video for bad games with good graphics. Here's hoping these are good games.
Great list though I can't believe that you didn't add games like MSFS 2024 which looks breathtaking.
I'm hoping Stalker 2 lives up to it's name. People love to mod the hell out of Stalker 1 so if the sequel isn't great, long time fans will probably go back to doing that
Body cam is wild
The more and more we create games with better graphics the more they suck. Back then we were limited with what we could do with graphics and the games were way better .
Can you elaborate? In what way were they better?
@@miks8 lawd do I really to do this. Your clearly not a gamer . Or either new to the table. Gaming was different back then, less tech and more games that delivered. I'm outa here .
@@madboi1591 Different/better how? Why is less tech better? Delivered how? You are just begging the question.
Im not a gamer because I ask for an explanation instead of immediately agreeing with general opinion?
Im an old school gamer, Im stuck at least a decade or more in the past. I have not played any of the new AAAs or big titles newer than 2014. So I dont know. So I ask.
@@miks8 yeah I ain't got time for that. Just do your research instead fam. Just stick to the old games, u will have more fun than the current ones. Current ones are full of hackers and gameplay sucks and boring.
@@miks8 He would probably be trying to tell you that games that care too much about graphics fails in other departments. His argument is probably that since games couldn't impress with today's graphics, they had to make the game as good as it could be -> games were better in the past than it is now. It usually goes like that, but it's a very wrong conclusion for many reasons.
I was just thinking of ultra realistic game graphics the other day. Thanks for the video, Gameranx, and stop reading my mind. 😅
Id say unrecord or Body cam should have been 1 and 2 with GTA 6 in third. Just based on the graphics or reality perception. GTA will be more open and also have more options that give it realism, but based on realistic Graphics, the others are more realistic looking.
