But despite a surprising mid-game plot reveal and some genuinely creepy atmosphere, the upper class British slang is just too grating and the story eventually too overwhelming for even this old bean to fully delight in. If anything, this shows that recipients of the Epic MegaGrants are well worth keeping an eye on, with Epic pushing forward development in games, technology and seemingly all forms of entertainment, while propelling Unreal Engine forward in as many ways as possible.Golly, there’s some frightfully spiffing twists and turns in Draugen when it isn’t going overboard with the old-fashioned dialogue, what what! The first-person “fjord noir” (an unusual sub-genre which I can only hope encourages future anomalies like “car park-erotic drama”) from the studio behind Dreamfall Chapters is set in picturesque 1920s Norway and draws you into an intriguingly busy narrative filled with cursed mines, Nordic mythology, family feuds and potential child murder.

Both are well celebrated for differing reasons ( read our Draugen review here), and both are titles that could certainly work for either TV or film. This is certainly something I'm interested in. I can’t wait to see what the outcome will be for these two great game IPs. This is a great initiative providing our Unreal Engine developers with exciting new areas of revenue generation by connecting them to other creative communities and audiences. Mike Gamble, Director of Business Development at Epic Games, had this to say:

90-second teaser trailers will be made for the treatments, to be shown at Cannes with the intention of packaging the projects for full production. In conjunction with creatives at Talenthouse, Goldfinch will now look towards developing pitch treatments for TV or film properties based on the IPs. Two IP's have been selected for this so far Draugen and Gylt.
Following the grant, IP holders could put forward their titles developed using the Unreal Engine, with relevant TV or film development proposals based on the IP. Understandably, Epic Games would like to see this used on a larger scale and saw an Epic MegaGrant going towards Goldfinch to help realise this. The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is a New Survival Game Featuring Gimli and Friends This is already occurring, with Unreal Engine being used in the development of huge shows and films like The Mandalorian and Rogue One. This is something Epic Games are looking to push forward, using Unreal Engine's power in the development of films and TV. With The Witcher's release - despite it being largely based on the novels - there certainly is hope yet of high-quality success stories. A very successful beast, but a beast nonetheless.
Of course, Tomb Raider was driven by the star power of Angelina Jolie, and the Resident Evil films became a beast of their own. When you look at video game IPs that have gone into TV or Film, one rarely has the quality and success that keeps people coming back for more.
