The Kingdom Hearts 3 video game is said to be released sometime next year in 2015. Development of Kingdom Hearts 3 was first announced during E3 2013 but news of the development has been a bit scarce. Though there is a bit of news made recently from Tetsuya Nomura, who recently left development of Final Fantasy XV and will be working on Kingdom Hearts 3.

According to Nomura, Square Enix has switched the development of Kingdom Hearts 3 to Epic Games, Unreal Engine 4. Because of the switch Square Enix made, there are a few rendering issues that they are working on so we’re unsure of how this affects the desired 2015 release date.

We will of course keep you updated on the very latest of Kingdom Hearts 3 right here on PlayStation Gang.

Daylight will be the developer’s first psychological horror game, using Unreal Engine 4, which has been utilized by very few developers.

The Unreal Engine 4 will be used to make the game even scarier, not like any other horror game we’ve experienced before.

Jared Gerritzen, the Studio Director of Zombie Studios, was asked if the game is going deliver next-gen visuals of 1080p and 60 fps. He answered:

“Its our target, but 1080p is our first priority. Being the first UE4 game on the first cycle of the PlayStation 4 doesn’t give us the leeway that the last generation has with lesser known tech, some parts will have to have balance.”

There is still no word of ‘Daylight’ being released for Xbox One just yet. Gerritzen confirms the platforms that will be compatible with the game:

“Currently we have no plans to put Daylight onto platforms other than PlayStation 4 and the PC.”

Daylight is set to launch on April 8, 2014 for PS4 and PC.

We hope that Zombie Studios will deliver on their promise of better visuals and run the game at 1080p/60 fps. Keep checking back for more details.

Epic Games’ Global Illumination technique is called Sparse Voxel Octree Global Illumination (SVOGI), a technique that was developed by Andrew Scheidecker. Despite what Epic Games showcased at last year’s GDC, it seems that this technique is too heavy for actual games.

Sweeney told GameTrailers that SVOGI was extremely expensive. Therefore, Epic Games decided to create a series of graphical effects that achieve the same image fidelity as SVOGI with far better performance.

Global Illumination refers to the calculation of light bouncing around a scene and gives realistic glossy and metallic reflections.
This means that UE4 supports realistic real-time reflections, realistic lighting, and a combination of direct lighting with pre-computed Global Illumination.

As Sweeney stated, the aforementioned features enabled them to achieve that level of effects of SVOGI without all the cost.

At the PlayStation Meeting, some amazing graphics using the replica of SVOGI were shown. Considering how the games have looked so far for the PS4, none of the console gamers have complained.

Unreal Engine 3 is what BioWare used to make Mass Effect and what Rocksteady used to make Batman Arkham City.

Many major games are made with Unreal, so if developers are excited about the next Unreal, the one that will probably power many games on the next Xbox and PlayStation that are shipping in late 2013.

Unreal Engine 4 is used to change lighting to make games look more real, make fire and smoke look better, and save game developers time.
