Remedy makes its own engine suitable for PlayStation 4
Remedy Entertainment announces that it will make its own Northlight engine suitable for the PlayStation 4. The Finnish studio is working on a new game and wants to release it on more platforms than Windows and Xbox One. Nothing further is known about the game.
Remedy announces in a press release that it wants to broaden its horizons. The studio does not want to release future games only on Microsoft platforms and is therefore going to add support for the PlayStation 4 to its own Northlight engine. The custom engine will be used for the studio’s next game. Remedy releases little more about this in the press release than the code name under which the game is known internally; P7. It is not known when P7 will be released on the market, or whether Remedy wants to involve a publisher in the project is also unknown.
P7 isn’t the only project the studio is working on. Remedy announced six months ago that it is creating the campaign for CrossFire 2, a game from Korean publisher Smilegate. CrossFire is an unknown game in the western world, but the shooter, which is very similar to Counter-Strike, has more than 600 million registered players in Asia. Smilegate has a turnover of more than a billion dollars with the game.
