This morning Witcher 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt RED has taken the curtains of its latest engine called REDengine3 which will be powering the cyberpunk style RPG when it releases.
“If we look at RPGs nowadays we find two approaches, one which emphasizes the story but limits the game world, and one that builds a vast, open world but hampers and simplifies the story. With the REDengine 3 we combine the positive aspects of both approaches for the first time, creating an open environment with a complex, multi-thread story. Together with believable characters, a captivating tale and a world where players can roam freely without loading times, we will be able to move gaming to a new level with a realistic feel and full player immersion. When working on our previous titles, I didn’t dream that we would achieve something like this. Thanks to the support of all our fans, now we have the possibility to use REDengine 3 and create something many RPG fans dream of,” said Adam Badowski, head of CD Projekt RED studio.
The press release email we received this morning had some more technical details as to why REDengine3 will be perfect for the RPG genre but your head would explode! For now just check out the first image that CD Project RED released.
