Vizrt’s XR Set Offers Native Unreal Engine With Viz Engine

Vizrt has announced a new release of its Virtual Studio Solution — Vizrt XR Set. 

With this latest release of XR Set, Vizrt unites the two most powerful graphics engines on the market in the best workflow possible. Viz Engine and a natively integrated, full-fledged Unreal Engine run side-by-side, giving end-users transparent access to all the best virtual graphics in the business – all with smooth control from a single location.

“For many of our customers, Virtual Sets and extended reality are part of the creative output they want to use every day,” says Remo Ziegler, VP, Product Management, Vizrt. “With the release of the new XR Set, we make the everyday workflow simple, so more can be done with less effort at a higher level of quality, which in turn wins and retains audiences for our customers’ productions.”
