Cover x Epic Games: Exploring New VTuber Horizons with Unreal Engine
In November 2024, COVER Corporation announced the launch of a new virtual live production project using Unreal Engine and as the project’s first major milestone, COVER held its first live concert livestream using Unreal Engine during ReGLOSS 3D LIVE “Sakura Mirage” held in March 2025, celebrating the one-and-a-half year anniversary of ReGLOSS’s debut. Unreal Engine, developed by the U.S.-based Epic Games, was first used commercially in 1998 as a real-time 3D game engine. Known for its high-quality graphics, real-time rendering capabilities, and robust library of assets, it offers a wide range of features that support content creation. In recent years, its applications have expanded far beyond gaming to include fields such as film production, architecture, manufacturing, simulation, and education. It is also increasingly being used in live performances and metaverse experiences, and continues to power a growing number of projects both in Japan and around the world. For this live concert - our very first using Unreal Engine - we were able to build an immersive, lifelike concert environment by including in real time some of the finer details often seen in live performances by real-world artists, such as camera exposure adjustments and lighting changes based on the time of day. In this feature, COVERedge sat down with members of the Technology Development Division from COVER’s Creative Production Department, along with representatives from Epic Games Japan, to explore the technologies behind this groundbreaking VTuber music stream.
