Microsoft: Too Human NOT dropping Unreal Engine 3
We earlier reported about the rumor going around that Too Human is not going to use Unreal Engine 3. It turns out that that rumor is so not true. A Microsoft spokesperson finally spoke about it and said that:
“Silicon Knights continues to build Too Human using the Unreal Engine 3, tailoring it to fit the needs of the game and ensure the most efficient use of the technology. Rumors of Too Human experiencing production challenges that will cause massive delays are false. Too Human is progressing very well and we expect that gamers will be extremely excited with Too Human when we next show it.”
Apparently, the rumor began when an article, circulated by Advance Media Network, mentioned that Silicon Knights would not be using UE3 because of gargantuan development difficulties. Citing unnamed sources, they also reported that Silicon Knights would be developing its own engine for the game.
MS’ rumor quashing meant that Too Human is coming out on schedule and with the wonders of an Unreal Engine 3-powered game. The Xbox 360 title is meant to be the first part of a trilogy, and is expected to launch in Q2 2007.
