Per il lancio del videogame Titanic: Honor and Glory la Four Funnels Entertainment ha pubblicato un’animazione di 2 ore e 40 che mostra il naufragio del celebre transatlantico in tempo reale.
Il video è stato realizzato con l’Unreal Engine 4 e mostra, minuto dopo minuto, la nave urtare l’iceberg, piegarsi, iniziare a imbarcare acqua, fino all’affondamento finale.
Il video è inoltre storicamente molto accurato e mostra tutti i singoli eventi occorsi.
