After
announcing last month that they had licensed Imagination Studios mocapping technology for
Alan Wake, Remedy Entertainment announced today that they have also licensed Umbra Software’s middleware from the Max Payne. Umbra’s technology “…increases rendering performance in 3D games and allows game developers to create rich, complex and highly dynamic game worlds previously impossible.” In other words, this will make the game look and run better. Chuck got a
better feel for the game at E3 earlier this month, but they need to get cracking to meet that Spring 2010 date.
