CineZone Camera is a native C++ camera-zone system for Unreal Engine, designed for 2.5D side-scrollers, platformers, puzzle games, cinematic experiences, and horror games.

Place Camera Zone actors in your level, resize their activation volumes, author each view directly through its embedded CineCamera, and create smooth transitions between gameplay areas without building custom Blueprint camera logic.
