We're launching a plugin for Unreal Engine that lets you use Replica's realistic sounding AI voice actors inside your games. Perfect for anyone who needs a voice in their game, but doesn't have the time or budget to hire a voice actor.
Hi Product Hunt!
When we founded Replica a couple of years back we dreamed that one day, game developers, filmmakers, animators, educators, and creatives would produce highly realistic speech performances using AI voices.
Earlier this year we launched our Web App & API that lets you prototype dialog and voice-overs : https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Today, we're excited to announce the launch of our plugin for Unreal Engine.
With Replica's UE plugin, creatives will have access to some of the World's most expressive AI Voices powered by Replica's synthetic voice engine.
Just how expressive are Replica AI voices?
Check out the demo on our website, called 'The Quest' where the entire vocal performance was synthesized using Replica AI Voice Actors. They even do battle cries.
Replica's UE plugin will revolutionise the audio production workflow for millions of Unreal Engine creatives and pave the way for gaming to become more personalised and immersive. Unreal Engine is also used by professional film-makers, animators, virtual beings and creatives producing amazing, other-worldly content.
We're inviting all UE developers, indie through AAA, to sign up to our beta at www.replicastudios.com/unreal
We can't wait to see what you'll build!

HOT DAMN! Kudos to the team and holy smokes to the video editor behind this! Whoever you are... did a bang up job!! Give yourself a massive pat on the back :)
Replica has clearly come a long way and I have no doubt will continue to progress so much further.
I can't remember how many times we'd hired talent and had them sitting in a studio when clients were realising their scripts sounded weird when read out a loud. I feel like this will save so much time for producers and VO talent.
And for the indie developers who can't afford talent in the first place. Holy smokes. Super exciting gang, well done to you all!!!
@tyson_ Thanks! The video was a lot of fun to create π€
We're hoping that this plugin will save a lot of time during pre-production and also allow developers to quickly create production ready vocal performances in their games.

@gvncmpbllwlsn just checked out your portfolio, amazing work man. Looking forward to seeing more mind-blowing work from you and the team!

Replica's voices are fascinating - I'm (still) not Unreal Engine user, I rather use the potential of Replica Studios for my AI-driven movies. But I say you what: if I imagine, this quality will be once implemented in Games for, say AI- or algorithm-driven dialogs between you and NPSs, that would be grandiose. You get the theater-quality of voices here (my favs are Deckard and Solomon - very artistic rendering).
@merzmensch we also have an API and a web app so you donβt need to use UE π

@merzmensch@gvncmpbllwlsn Thank you! I couldn't find the emotion control besides of specific moods for some of the voices. Will it be rolled out? (Like in the video demo where you even can emphasize a single word). That's be great! :)
Btw. here is my newest video using Replica Voices:
This looks incredible! The technology blows me away, especially being able to select from different emotions. I can see this changing how games are created, especially paired with Unreal Engine. Nice work Replica team!
@jxgrnt Thanks Jackson! This is the product that we have been dreaming to build since we first started - a product that can enhance people creativity in games, animations, and many more!

Congrats on the launch Replica! Cool as heck to see this bleeding edge tech available to anyone using UE π₯ this is the future of content creation π
Congratulations Replica!! Iβve seen your synthetic voices evolve rapidly and they keep on getting better every time. This is super exciting for game creators all over the globe.
@deeaero thanks :) we currently have 31 Replica Voices and you don't have to wait for the Unreal Engine plugin to use them.
The voices in the video are not yet on the platform. They will potentially be released this quarter.
We are currently working on improving our existing voices and adding a lot more new character voices which we will ship in Q1 of 2021.
