The Matrix Awakens UE5 tech demo can now be pre-downloaded on consoles

The Matrix Awakens product leaked last week has been confirmed to be an Unreal Engine 5 tech demo for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

It’s now available to pre-download on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S ahead of a full reveal at The Game Awards on December 9.

“Get ready for a glimpse into the future of interactive storytelling and entertainment with UE5 in this free, boundary-pushing cinematic and real-time tech demo,” reads the product description.

“Created by members of the original movie team including Lana Wachowski along with Epic Games and partners, The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal Engine 5 Experience is a wild ride into the reality-bending universe of The Matrix that features performances by Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss.

The Matrix Awakens was outed last week when it emerged that a promotional image for the product had been published on the PlayStation Network.

The fourth instalment in The Matrix movie franchise hits cinemas later this month. Directed by Wachowski, The Matrix Resurrections is the sequel to 2003’s The Matrix Revolutions.

Several official Matrix video games have previously been released including Enter The Matrix (2003), The Matrix: Path of Neo (2005) and The Matrix Online (2005).

The Game Awards founder Geoff Keighley expects 40-50 games to be on show at this year’s event in one form or another and new titles being announced to number in the double digits.
