Build an island in the sun with this collection of totally tropical assets from the CRYENGINE Marketplace!

Summer’s here, and there’s no better time to head off to an island paradise for a holiday. So why not also treat your players to an island getaway of their own with this selection of ready-to-go assets from the CRYENGINE Marketplace.

No island retreat is complete without a range of beautiful, thick vegetation. Birdeez has a range of flora and fauna perfect for populating your island, including palm trees, ferns, sugar cane plants, and banana plants. Each pack comes with multiple variations which are correctly scaled and ready to drop into your project.

You can build out the wilds of your island with lush or sun-scorched grass, depending on the aesthetic you wish to create, with the Realistic Grass Pack from Victor Ribeiro. Featuring PBR 2K and 4K files, you can tweak the color and of each of the grass selections, and the pack includes a function that will allow your grass to move realistically in the wind or from collisions.

 

Whether your players are exploring or attempting to survive on your island, you could give them the tools to take shelter. Vise19 has created a Camp Pack which includes two tents that can shield players from the sun by day or tropical storms at night.

 

And what camp is complete without a campfire? Well, Birdeez has got you covered with this high quality, PBR asset which is perfect for giving your characters a place to eat or stay warm at night.

Your players are fed and sheltered, but what lies in the depths of your island? The Temple 01 Pack from aB Assets Factory gives you a towering, mysterious temple to discover, explore, or fight through. What secrets might lay there… you decide.

For any dastardly megalomaniac, desert islands are a perfect place to build a secret military base. The Island Pack from Roman Maltsev includes a wide range of assets, from a gate control building and lookout tower to generators, doors, ladders, and stairs, ideal for making a guarded compound.

If you haven’t already downloaded it, The Climb Asset Pack features a wide range of assets that featured in our award-winning VR game which will help you bring your island to life. From waterfalls and overhanging vegetation and rocks to soaring eagles and hot air balloons, this free pack of assets is sure to have something in it for you.
