Epic Games is Breaking New Ground, Literally
I know it seems like we’ve been bringing you a lot of articles about Epic Games lately, but that’s strictly a coincidence. This news comes straight from the Sr. PR Manager over at Epic, Dana Cowley:
“We’re constructing a second building next door to our existing facility. It will include a totally new, state-of-the-art motion capture facility in addition to dozens of new offices.
The construction you can see from the road right now is mostly for the expanded parking lot.”
The part that really stands out in the quote is the mention of a new motion capture facility on the grounds of Epic. With this new facility at their disposal as well as their continued work on the Unreal 4 Engine, it is obvious that Epic is planning on stepping their game up bigtime with future releases. I look forward to seeing how this added technology will translate into the kind of advances that can be brought to titles that they’re going to put out in the future.
While several smaller studios are shutting down, Epic is expanding, extensively!
Keep checking back for more updates!
