| DEVELOPMENT HISTORY |
Split Fiction is a new sci-fi action game with RPG elements, which is being developed by the independent studio Quantum Core Studios. The game was announced in 2023 and from the very beginning attracted attention with its unusual approach to the narrative and gameplay.
The development was based on the concept of parallel universes, where the player will have to move between different realities, influencing their course. The developers were inspired by works in the genre of cyberpunk and alternative history, which was reflected both in the style of the world and in the construction of the plot.
Quantum Core Studios makes extensive use of cutting-edge technologies such as procedural level generation, dynamic environment changes, and non-linear gameplay. In the early stages of development, the studio faced a number of challenges related to integrating a multi-layered narrative and working out the mechanics of transitions between worlds. However, thanks to feedback from players who participated in closed testing, the developers were able to optimize the core mechanics and improve the game's performance.
In 2024, Split Fiction reached the open testing stage, during which the studio actively collected player feedback, refining the balance and interaction system. The developers also focused on deep character customization, allowing players to change not only their appearance, but also key abilities that affect the gameplay. The final version has several alternative endings depending on the decisions made during the game.
| GRAPHICS |
Split Fiction uses the latest rendering technologies to create a detailed world with realistic lighting and a high degree of interactivity. The game is developed on the basis of the engine Unreal Engine 5, which gives it significant advantages in terms of visual performance. The developers have implemented an advanced global illumination system Lumen, which provides realistic behavior of light and shadows in real time.
The level design includes both gloomy megalopolises with neon lights and thick fogs, and desert landscapes with destroyed structures of alternate worlds. Textures are developed in high resolution, which allows you to distinguish even the smallest details of the environment.
One of the key elements of the graphic design was the dynamic change of realities. When moving between worlds, the player sees the environment changing in real time, creating the effect of instant transformation. This adds depth to the gameplay, since changes can affect not only visual perception, but also gameplay mechanics.
Optimization of the engine allowed to provide stable performance even on average systems. The developers implemented support for FSR technology, which allows to achieve high frame rates without loss of image quality. In addition, the game provides advanced graphics settings, which gives players the opportunity to flexibly adjust the parameters to their preferences and the capabilities of their systems.
| GAME ENGINE |
Split Fiction is based on Unreal Engine 5, which allows for highly detailed environments, complex physical effects, and advanced AI algorithms. The developers actively use Nanite technologies to improve the quality of object geometry without significantly affecting performance. This is especially noticeable when interacting with destroyed objects and destructible locations, where particles and fragments remain in the game world, rather than disappearing, as in most games.
Split Fiction's AI system is built on advanced machine learning algorithms, allowing NPCs to adapt to the player's playstyle. Enemies can change their tactics based on the player's behavior, use the environment for cover, and even coordinate attacks in difficult situations. This approach makes combat more intense and strategic.
The game's physical model is developed at a high level: environmental objects have realistic properties, and interaction with them feels as natural as possible. The engine supports dynamic simulation of destruction, which allows players to destroy walls, break through partitions and use destructible environments for tactical purposes.
| QUALITY |
On the minimum (Low) settings, the game significantly simplifies texture detailing, reduces or disables additional effects such as volumetric smoke and complex lighting. Objects and characters look sharp enough, but the overall visual perception is “flatter”, shadows and highlights are simplified, and the draw distance is reduced for the sake of a stable frame rate.
RџSЂRё maximum (High) graphics settings are significantly richer in detail: textures on models and environments look more realistic, and the lighting and shadow system works with a higher level of accuracy. Additional effects such as depth of field and improved anti-aliasing give the picture a cinematic look and depth, but this mode requires more powerful hardware to maintain a stable 60 FPS.
