Death Stranding’s Engine Possibly Called ‘Decima’, Based On Guerrilla Games Engine – Rumor

Kojima Productions' Death Stranding came out last night at The Game Awards in grand fashion and wouldn't you know it but Mads Mikkelsen (of Hannibal fame) made an appearance.

Hmm, interesting.

[DigitalRaptor]

This is odd. The rumours have been it's either Sucker Punch or Guerrilla.

According to this guy's source it's a modified SP engine: https://twitter.com/YongYea...

But reliable Shinobi602 talked about it being Guerrilla's engine.

ya i heard it was a modified Sucker Punch Engine that was used for Second Son and First Light

[Malice-Flare]

so, this reduces the budget to 10%? hmm...

[gameseveryday]

It reduces budget several more than the figure you mentioned. Furthermore, the game will be developed quickly since the tools and framework will already be set. However the game won't come out anytime before 2018....in fact I will shocked (in a good way) if it releases in 2017.

See Rashid, an article worth visiting and discussing...

[zivtheawesome]

pretty cool.

Well, if it's based on GG's engine, that's certainly not a bad thing at all =) I'm interested in hearing more about this engine...

Guerrilla Games's engine current for Horizon: Zero Dawn is quite possibly the most impressive game engine I've seen so far, not just for open world games, but for games in general. The gorgeous environments & overall detail for that open world game is simply stunning. Aloy's model is remarkably detailed and beautiful as well.

[Lamboomington]

I have to disagree, it's not the best looking game I've seen overall. I mean, Uncharted 4 on the PS4 is way more impressive, but it is a different kind of game (not open world)

I suppose this sort of comes down to preference because there isn't really a perfect comparison with this kind of thing.

[ClayRules2012]

That's totally fine that you disagree, bud. Uncharted 4 looks incredible, and "in my opinion" is the most beautiful & visually impressive game ever released "in my opinion" Naughty Dog are masters of their craft, in storytelling and graphics. My personal favorite game developers.

I know developers, depending on who that "said" developer is, can push the visuals to much much greater levels of brilliance in just about everything, if their game isn't open world, which Uncharted 4 isn't, I think that's more Wide linear, and Naughty Dog raised the graphics bar to another level "in my opinion" with Uncharted 4.

But I still feel that Horizon, for being an open world game, is quite possibly, more visually impressive, than Uncharted 4, in my eyes.

I understand what you're saying though, bud =)
Much love.

YongYea is going to have a field day with this.

Kojima - "Please, Naughty Dog, let me use your engine."

Naughty Dog - "You cannot wield its mighty power!"

*slaps Kojima*

Naughty Dog - "It is too much for any other studio to handle."

Kojima - *tears*

[gameseveryday]

I believe this actually happened. He must have saw the tech of Naughty Dog but was amazed by its power so he left it as is :D

[ShadowWolf712]

That... does not look like Guerilla's engine but we'll see I guess.

[BiggerBoss]

How can you even tell? If I just looked at DA Inquisition I would have no idea it's the same engine as Battlefield

[Nitrowolf2]

I don't understand when people say this an engine is an engine, what Guerrilla games produce in terms of looks it's just their Style otherwise anyone with knowledge can make their game look completely different.

There are many Unreal Engine 4 games that will have similarities, but doesn't exactly look like an unreal game. It's all about art Direction.

Also it says it's based on the engine meaning it's been modified

[Sevir]

GG's engine has been used to power alot of games from PS3 to PS4... in fact Sony's Phyre Engine was Co developed by ICE and GG.

On PS4 GG's own engine Powered Super Massive's Until Dawn. So if Decima is a modified GG engine for KojiPro, then this will be awesome.

[thisismyaccount]

"Decima" is spanish and means 10, the 10th of <____>?

[Goldby]

Also is a name of a Roman goddess who measures the Threads of Life with her rod

[BABY-JEDI]

Whatever is happening at Kojima's studio yo know Mark Cerney & Frostbite team have indepth knowledge of Game's Engine 😉

[InMyOpinion]

Whatever it is called it looks to be a monster. The Fox Engine displayed some of the best lighting this gen in MGSV (dat moonlight!) and this will probably top that.
