What’s new
Set in the familiar village of Kampung Durian Runtuh, Upin & Ipin Universe invites players into a peaceful, combat-free environment filled with local charm. The game features a wide range of mini-games and activities including farming, fishing, insect collecting, cooking, RC car racing, and spinning top battles. Players can experience over 12 hours of story-driven gameplay along with numerous side quests.
Developed using Unreal Engine 5, the game includes full voice acting in Bahasa Malaysia and English, with subtitle support. PC players will be able to adjust resolution, frame rate, texture quality, and shadow settings for optimal performance.
A new high for Malaysia
This release represents a milestone for the Malaysian gaming and animation industries. Co-developed by Les’ Copaque Production and Streamline Studios, Upin & Ipin Universe is also a result of a tech transfer initiative aimed at enhancing Malaysia’s local game development capabilities.
TechNave’s perspective is that this game combines nostalgic characters with family-friendly gameplay in a way that could appeal to a broad audience—from younger players discovering the series to longtime fans. With its relaxing pace and emphasis on local culture, it stands apart from typical action-heavy open-world titles.
