As impressive as the teams of developers that create games are, sometimes I am more blown away by the passion of the communities that build up around them, and what comes out of them. As more and more games are being made with software that is more available for general public use, like Unreal Engine, Blender, and Unity, this means that fans are able to try their hand at making custom creations to add into their favorite games, or even full-blown tools that help others do so. From clever randomizers to giant adjustments to the base game, these are some of the best fan mods and creations released in 2025.

Totally separate from the new scenes found within The Whole Bloody Affair, The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge is a roughly 10-minute scene built in Unreal Engine that brings together the Kill Bill series and, unexpectedly--or perhaps not-- Fortnite. I recently attended the premiere of Yuki's Revenge at the packed Vista Theater in Los Angeles, alongside Tarantino and "The Bride" herself, Uma Thurman, who were on hand to debut this long-lost scene now that it's found its surprising home.

Epic Games' game engine often competes with apps like Cinema 4D, featured in our guide to the best animation software, when it comes to creating motion graphics for TV as well as games. Now Epic Games has released a new Sports Broadcast Motion Design Sample, a free project file packed with more than 40 rigged assets to show you exactly how the pros do it and try your hand at creating too.

Epic Games' MetaHuman Creator is now integrated into Unreal Engine 5.6, allowing developers to create realistic characters easily and sell them.

The Witcher 4 is anticipated to be unveiled with new features at Epic's State of Unreal event, following CD Projekt Red's transition to Unreal Engine for future games.
