BioWare chooses HeroEngine for Star Wars MMO

BioWare chooses HeroEngine for Star Wars MMO

Zenimax also using middleware on unannounced title

BioWare used Idea Fabrik’s development platform HeroEngine to help create its huge MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Fabrik said the SWTOR developer chose its engine because of its “integrated offering of development tools that provide live collaborative development and real-time updates”.

HeroEngine is a 3D game engine and server technology platform designed for creating MMO-style games.

SWTOR marks the first “major release” of a game built using the tool.

The middleware provider also revealed that Zenimax is using the engine as part of development on an as yet unannounced MMO.
