— Robert Bowling (@fourzerotwo) March 21, 2014Bowling, who started Robotoki in 2012 after leaving Infinity Ward, explained his reasons for choosing the CryEngine. ”The ambitious narrative and gameplay of Human Element required an innovative set of features in order to achieve our vision. CryEngine is the perfect fit for us because it delivers so many powerful features straight out of the box such as the physical based shading system and the infinite terrain from segmented worlds to create a massive open world experience but still allow the visual fidelity and detail our players expect from a first person experience from our team.”
We don’t know too much about Human Element yet, apart from that it will focus on survivors of a zombie apocalypse tasked with rebuilding society. More news and info as it surfaces.
