Once a great ally and partner of Epic, Digital Extremes has suddenly decided to go separate ways.
Digital Extremes has used Unreal Engine in all their games and co-developed Unreal Tournament 2003 and 2004 with Epic. But for their latest title, Dark Sector, Digital Extremes decided to write their own 3d engine from scratch, rather than using Unreal Engine 3.
"A lot of promises were made about the Unreal III engine, particularly on PS3. But as we see now, the time frames haven't been met and now a lot of games using it are being held up", said Dark Sector game director Steve Sinclair.
