I’ve been making PC games since before these new-fangled GPUs became fashionable, and have vague memories of writing software rasterizers in machine code.ĭSOG: Sniper Elite 3 will be powered by the Asura engine if we are not mistaken. I’ve been at Rebellion for 19 years now – back in the 90s I was lead programmer on the original PC version of Aliens vs Predator. I’m the architect of our in-house Asura engine.

Kevin Floyer-Lea: Hi, I’m Kevin Floyer-Lea, Head of Programming here at Rebellion.

Enjoy the interview after the jump!ĭSOGaming: Before we begin, please introduce yourselves to our readers. In addition, Kevin shared his thoughts on Mantle, DX12 (as well as DX11.2), a possible new Aliens vs Predator game and the advantages/disadvantages of self-publishing a PC game. Kevin shared some new details with us about the tech features of the Asura Engine, its Multicore CPU capabilities, and the ‘Obscurance Fields’ setting (that most of you didn’t know for what it was responsible for). A couple of days ago, we had the pleasure of interviewing Kevin Floyer-Lea, Head of Programming at Rebellion.
