About Bandai Namco Games
“We have built a good working relationship with Silicon Studio as our developers. Our current project was originally designed three years ago to be a Japanese-made, fast-paced action game with next gen graphics that could hold their own in a challenging international environment. At the time when there was a change of hardware, we were looking for an external engine which allowed the development to be efficient and had the support structure, our choice for this was “OROCHI 3” and “YEBIS 3.” We believe the engine will still continue to evolve so we have used it for the current project and will consider it for future projects too.”
