Sarà il loro fiore all’occhiello
Ignition Entertainment, software house londinese che lancerà questa estate il suo sparatutto in prima persona (FPS) Blacklight: Tango Down attraverso il solo canale online, ci informa attraverso un comunicato ufficiale che il loro prossimo titolo sarà sviluppato grazie al CryEngine 3.
Secondo il team di sviluppatori le potenzialità del motore grafico creato da Crytek sarebbero in grado di permettere la realizzazione del gioco d’azione che hanno in mente. Dello stesso avviso è Carl Jones, Responsabile del Global Business Development, dichiarando che “Siamo lieti che Ingnition ha deciso di puntare sul CryENGINE 3 che è l’unico motore in grado di raggiungere la visione per il loro gioco di punta. La loro squadra è di grande talento con l’ambizione di creare un gioco stato dell’arte – e da quello che abbiamo già visto, siamo fiduciosi che il loro sviluppo sarà la vetrina per promuovere la migliore tecnologia CryENGINE 3. Lavoriamo sempre a stretto contatto con tutti i nostri licenziatari e non vediamo l’ora di realizzare cose incredibili con Ignition a Londra per il futuro”.
