A new report states that Russia is looking into making its own game engine. This comes as support from other companies has been pulled following Putin’s barbaric invasion of Ukraine.
The report by Kommersant (via PC Gamer) states that “a number of major players in the Russian IT market including VK” [Russia’s own Facebook alternative] are currently in talks with the Ministry of Digital Development to create a “domestic game engine (a means of developing video games) and the possibility of allocating state funding for it.”
Talks regarding this new engine began in May, when Russian developers allegedly voiced their concerns that they will soon have limited access to other engines such as Unreal or Unity. During these talks, the initiative was described as “important and urgent” for Russia’s video game developers.
