Free Unreal Engine 5.6 Project: Paragon GAS Combat Sample with Motion Matching (Chris Parker)

Overview

Chris Parker shares Paragon GAS (P-GAS), a Gameplay Ability System sample for Unreal Engine 5.6.1 that teaches how to use several engine features together to build a GAS-powered combat system. It brings together GAS and Gameplay Tags, StateTree with EQS, custom tools and subsystems, thread-safe animation, custom anim notifies and Motion Matching.

The characters and props come from free Fab content, including the Paragon heroes Wukong, Countess, Sparrow and Twinblast, the Seven Swords and Kunai packs and a free sword sound pack, plus Mixamo animations. The README notes that it is a sample project rather than a completed game, and the C++ project is a free download from GitHub.
