A blend of traditional and procedural animation is needed to make the characters behave in physically plausible manners. Kenya (the player&#8217;s character) also has an extremely complicated moveset similar to Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, and making all her jumps, rolls, vaults, climbs, QTE takedowns, slides, interacts, and weapon firings blend seamlessly in Unreal is a big challenge.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">6 Degrees has an extremely transparent development mentality, which we love to see.
