Overview
The HUXLEY® Multiplayer Game Experience enables Citizens of FURY-7 to compete with and against each other in 3 stunning playable Wasteland environments brought to life in Unreal Engine 5. Commander Ben Mauro applied years of experience working on world-renowned gaming franchises Halo and Call of Duty to his own creative vision, building a vertical slice that firmly demonstrates what a future AAA HUXLEY® game might look like. Mauro enlisted the help of revered gaming studio Big Medium Small to build the experience.

Purpose and Vision
- The goal of the Vertical Slice multiplayer gaming experience is to showcase an interactive example of how a HUXLEY® video game created using Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) would look and feel, in a similar strategy to how the cinematic trailer showcases a vision for what a big screen adaptation of the HUXLEY® story would be like.
- The creation of the assets associated with the Vertical Slice also lays a foundation for creative exploration. For example, a character model or set created in UE5 can be adapted for use in virtual production. Additionally, the Vertical Slice serves as an enriching experience for HUXLEY® community members and an exciting incentive for newcomers to discover the IP and the many adventures that can be found throughout the Wastelands of FURY-7.
