It should be worth mentioning that according to the video description, the game was created by a small indie team and the gameplay trailer shown reveals an excerpt from an early phase. The game is still in progress and improvements can be expected before it is released.
Shadow of Conspiracy: Section 2 is based on Unreal Engine 5 and, thanks to the implementation of Metahuman, that should enable photo-realistic characters. According to their own statement, the makers were inspired by films such as Blade Runner and Ghost in the Shell (1995), but also by games such as The Last of Us and the Metal Gear Solid series.
