Replica Studios goes early access with AI voice actors for Unreal’s MetaHuman Creator

Replica Studios has launched early access to integrate its voice actor service into Unreal Engine’s MetaHuman Creator, enabling developers to create believable AI characters with realistic voices.

The Brisbane, Australia-based company is one of a number of startups that are using advances in AI to create voice-based products. Replica aims to save studios weeks of expensive voice-acting reshoots and script adjustments. The AI voice platform from Replica will enable well-timed lip-syncing for digital humans, and it will be on display at next week’s all-digital Game Developers Conference.
