Memoriapolis Trailer Unveiled at Future Game Show Gamescom 2024

The Future Game Show at Gamescom 2024 provided the perfect stage for the world premiere of our latest CGI project: the official announcement trailer for Memoriapolis, an ambitious historical city-building simulation from our client Paradigm Entertainment. The trailer, which was one of the highlights of the show, has already generated significant buzz throughout the gaming community.
A Grand Historical Vision
Memoriapolis represents a bold new direction for city-building games, inviting players to construct a city spanning 2,500 years of history. Players choose their culture, manage resources, face historical events, and build "Wonders" to achieve the status of Capital of Capitals. Our challenge was to create a trailer that captured this epic scope while maintaining historical authenticity.
Visual Development
The project required extensive research into historical architecture and city planning across multiple eras. Our team developed a unique visual language that accurately represents each historical period while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic throughout the trailer.
One of our key innovations was the development of a custom building generation system that allows for seamless transitions between historical periods. This technique is showcased in several key moments in the trailer where the environment transforms as time progresses through the ages.
Technical Challenges
Creating the Memoriapolis trailer presented several unique technical challenges:
- Real-time city construction system visualization
- Historical era transitions that maintain geographic continuity
- Dynamic population simulation across different time periods
- Architectural detail upscaling for close-up shots
- Period-accurate city planning representation
Future Game Show Premiere
The trailer's premiere at the Future Game Show during Gamescom 2024 exceeded all expectations. Industry press has been equally enthusiastic, with many outlets highlighting the trailer as one of the standout moments of the entire show, particularly noting the seamless transitions between historical periods.
Looking Forward
We're incredibly proud of what our team has accomplished with the Memoriapolis trailer and grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with Paradigm Entertainment on such an innovative project. This work represents another step forward in our mission to create game trailers that aren't just marketing tools, but artistic statements in their own right.
The trailer is now available on all major streaming platforms, and you can view it on our projects page. Memoriapolis is scheduled for release in 2024 for PC and major consoles.
