With a group of press yesterday, Infinity Ward studio head Patrick Kelly confirmed that Call of Duty will look much better with the new game engine.
Rumors of a new game engine for Call of Duty have been around for a while. However, at the press conference held yesterday, Infinity Ward studio head Patrick Kelly confirmed that Call of Duty will come with a new game engine.
Call of Duty will look much better with the new game engine
Although this information was heard a while ago, especially by those who closely followed the production, it was confirmed with the latest statement. In addition, thanks to this information, it has been confirmed that this completely new engine will be used in future Call of Duty productions.
According to the developers, this new engine is “much better” than what they are currently using, and this means that all engineers and developers from different Call of Duty studios can work on a single asset. But for those who are wary that this means every Call of Duty game will now feel the same regardless of who does it, the developers also noted that they have no plans to homogenize things, and that every game integration will still be unique in the future.
For those who don’t know, every Call of Duty studio (Infinity Ward, Treyarch, Sledgehammer Games) had its own version of the Call of Duty engine, which made every game feel different from the other. The fact that each studio used different engines also made it very difficult to find faults. In this way, we hope that we will encounter more error-free productions, since both experience sharing and common team use can be easily achieved.
Who knows, we’ll see a new Call of Duty game every six months, not once a year…
