I built a modular stylized character system for UE5 — finally released the Starter Pack
I've been working on this stylized character system for UE5 for quite a while, and I finally got the first pack released!
The idea is to have a common modular framework for quickly creating different stylized player characters and NPCs, rather than treating every character as a completely separate asset.
The Starter Pack includes male and female characters with interchangeable clothing, hairstyles, facial hair and color customization. Everything is already rigged and set up in UE5, with a character Blueprint for customization, IK rigs and retargeters.
My plan is to expand the same system with additional themed packs over time, so I'd be particularly interested in hearing from other UE developers: what kinds of characters/outfits would actually be useful for your projects?
It's available on Fab here for anyone interested:
