Today, we’re very proud to announce the ‘Dawn Engine™’, our new, state of the art game engine that will be the cornerstone to the development of the Deus Ex Universe projects at the studio.
The Dawn Engine, based on a heavily modified version of IO Interactive’s Glacier™ 2 engine, features new technology that allows for improved rendering capabilities, real-time physics, and advanced artificial intelligence programming, among other things. An official screenshot from the Dawn Engine can be found here.
“The technology behind any game is a key component in ensuring that gamers are able to develop both an emotional and visceral connection to what they are experiencing within the game world,” said David Anfossi, Studio Head at Eidos-Montréal. “We’ve worked tirelessly over the last few years developing this engine, building upon and improving both the visual and immersive artistry in our games. We truly believe that our engine will help us to strengthen both the gameplay and storytelling experiences we strive to create.”
Eidos-Montréal is also seeking qualified candidates to join its world-class development team. Open positions for the development of the Dawn Engine, as well as Eidos-Montréal games, are currently available on the employment page here.
