Created by artist and YouTuber ‘TeaserPlay’, this fan concept video shows how an open-world Black Panther title could look in Epic’s new game engine complete with Nanite and Lumen tech. As expected, it has T’Challa fans excited as there are rumors about EA’s new LA studio working on an open-world single-player action RPG featuring the agile hero. Here’s what Jeff Grubb and Mike Williams recently had to say about this rumored project. “The [game] is called Project Rainier, and I believe that refers to the mountain in Washington [State]. It is a single-player game, it is in very early development, and the game starts with Black Panther being dead and the player is going to take on the challenge of becoming the new Black Panther. That seems to be the setup for the game. It is very likely being produced by the new Seattle studio that was founded by Monolith.” You can check out the new Black Panther Unreal Engine 5 concept video from TeaserPlay below:

Skydance New Media is helmed by award-winning writing and directory Amy Hennig. This title marks the first initiative from the new AAA game studio.” What are your thoughts about this concept video?
