StarEngine

À propos du moteur

StarEngine is the unofficial/internal name of Star Citizen's game engine, originally based on CryEngine 3 (from Crytek) in 2011 and then switched in 2016 to the Lumberyard (a fork of CryEngine 3.8.1) which was licensed in 2015 to Amazon for $70 million. The change was needed in order to utilize the integrated Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Cloud-Computing features "to support next-generation online gaming". The reason that devs dubbed the engine was because they said at a point that the engine was so reworked beyond its core design.
