Capcom expands partnership with Havok Physics
Havok today announced that it continues to expand its business into the Japanese game development community as it signed a significant deal with Capcom Co., Ltd, a leading video game developer and publisher. With this agreement, Capcom has made Havok Physics its development tool of choice. Capcom has licensed Havok Physics for its highly anticipated titles Lost Planet 2 and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Capcom's three recently released worldwide blockbusters Lost Planet, Dead Rising, and Resident Evil 5 were also developed using the physics solution. "Havok is very excited to continue working with Capcom's talented development team to help with its upcoming games. The fact that a powerhouse such as Capcom chose Havok for these new titles demonstrates Havok's clear leadership position as the premier technology solutions provider to developers around the world," said David O'Meara, Managing Director of Havok. "We're proud to be a part of Capcom's development strategy. Havok Physics was easily integrated into Capcom's existing game development pipeline and we believe these triple-A projects will showcase the unparalleled flexibility and robustness of Havok Physics."
"We chose to work with Havok because its software is the fastest and most scalable physics engine available. Havok's support and documentation sets the gold standard in the industry," said Jun Takeuchi, General Manager of Research and Development Strategic Planning Department, Consumer Games Research and Development Division of Capcom Co., Ltd. "After a comparison with other companies' products, we valued the superiority of Havok and adopted its software."
This means more physical correct Zombie killing.
