Robotoki Chooses CRYENGINE for “Human Element”

by MaXfReZa / Monday, 24 March 2014 / Published in Gaming

Crytek today announced a CRYENGINE licensing deal with independent game studio, Robotoki, who will use the state-of-the-art development tool to create a new game for PC and consoles.

Based in Los Angeles, Robotoki was founded by Robert Bowling, the former lead of Infinity Ward and Creative Strategist of the Call of Duty franchise. The studio is working on the innovative open-world survival game “Human Element”, which challenges players to rebuild society in the aftermath 35 years after a zombie apocalypse and adapt as the world evolves based on their actions.

“The ambitious narrative and gameplay of Human Element required an innovative set of features in order to achieve our vision.” remarked Bowling, Robotoki’s President and Creative Director. “CRYENGINE is the perfect fit for us because it delivers so many powerful features straight out of the box such as the physical based shading system and the infinite terrain from segmented worlds to create a massive open world experience but still allow the visual fidelity and detail our players expect from a first person experience from our team.”

Carl Jones, Business Development Director at Crytek, welcomed the partnership: “The team at Robotoki have earned countless plaudits in the games industry, and their talent is obvious from the amazing work we’ve seen them producing with CRYENGINE already. We look forward to offering them the same high level of support we promise to all CRYENGINE licensees as they work to turn their ideas into a reality.”

Human Element is scheduled for release in late 2015. For more information on the game and Robotoki, visit www.robotoki.com.

    im really starting to hate fps games … there is no immersion or connectivity to the character in the game when compared to a 3rd person shooter game

      With the exception of BioShock Infinite and Titanfall, I agree. While nothing beats the competitive nature of a FPS, I’m fully satisfied with 3rd person adventure games like: Tomb Raider, Red Dead Redemption, Uncharted Series, Prince of Persia, Assassin’s Creed Series, The Last of Us, Grand Theft Auto Series, and the Batman Arkham Series.
