Localization is a significant aspect of the gaming industry, ensuring that games are accessible to a global audience through translated dialogue and text. NVIDIA’s Audio2Face technology is revolutionizing this process by introducing advanced lip-synching and facial animation capabilities within the Unreal Engine 5-powered Unawake.
Unlike traditional media, digital gaming performances are entirely flexible, allowing for seamless integration of multiple languages and lip-syncing options. For instance, Sony’s PlayStation-exclusive Ghost of Tsushima, soon to be available on PC, offers both English and native Japanese language options with full lip-syncing and facial animation.
NVIDIA’s AI-powered Audio2Face technology is a game-changer for facial animation and localization in the gaming industry. By leveraging generative AI, this innovation is paving the way for more immersive and culturally inclusive gaming experiences.
