New World - Monarch's Bluffs

With the Brimstone Sands release, Monarch's Bluffs underwent a complete identity overhaul as part of the revamped main story quest. I had the opportunity to assist in content creation for the castle kit and other assets. Highlighted here are three assets I took ownership over. The castle gatehouse, draw bridge, and portcullis.

From refining a base mesh, to unwrapping using trim sheets, vertex painting for wear and storytelling - these three assets are used across many of the grand castles that can be explored in New World's Monarch's Bluffs zone.

The individual assets and modular kits were touched by many hands, the team collaboration was paramount to revitalizing the main story questing experience for Monarch's Bluffs. Listed below are some people I worked with who contributed talent to re-shaping Monarch's Bluffs for the anniversary release. Shout out to the Amazon Game Studios and Lost Boys Interactive art teams!
