The Legend of Maula Jatt

Project details

This game delivers the ultimate VR gaming experience. The Legend of Maula Jatt is based on an upcoming highly anticipated movie. The story revolves around an epic rivalry between two main characters. In the experience, the player portrays as the main character and fight with the antagonist enemies with a large ax-like glaive. We paid subtle attention-to-detail to achieve realism, thus doing all the 3D assets of this game using in-house photogrammetry scans made from 360° photographic data and motion capture to record each character’s unique gait, dialogue delivery, and signature moves. The end product resulted in ultra-realistic digital doubles of all characters.
