Alien: Isolation is created on the corporate engine

Perhaps the first feature that rushes into the eye when looking at Alien: Isolation – This is an impressive game of light and shadow. It is she who creates a lion’s share of the atmosphere and promotes the injury of fear. To achieve such impressive results, Creative Assembly decided to abandon the licensing of engine engines and created for Isolation Your own “Motor”.

This information found out the PCGameshardware resource during an interview with the developer team. “Especially for Alien: Isolation We wrote our own engine, – the representative said Creative Assembly. – This allowed us to focus on the development of the game at the time when there was no official information about the new consoles. We clearly imagined what we want to achieve – what features the gameplay will have, what schedule we want to get in the end. Guided by these conditions, we created the engine, which is not suitable for the realization of the intended “.

What is characteristic, the engine Creative Assembly will effectively use the benefits of multi-core processors, but PhysX support is not foreseen. But, perhaps, in the future, the British will enjoy their technology with a low-level MANTLE API from AMD.
