After ten years of inactivity, Havok releases a new tech video
https://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/after-ten-years-of-inactivity-havok-releases-a-new-tech-video/
Now here is something interesting. Havok has just released a new tech video, showcasing dynamic destruction with the Havok physics. This tech video comes almost ten years after the previous one. And, as you will see, it looks really cool.
This video shows how Havok Physics Particles and full rigid bodies can change the environment. They can block paths, open new areas, or even destroy the world around you. As Havok claimed, dynamic destruction and huge numbers of physically simulating bodies can add depth and intensity to any level.
The level shown here was created in Unreal Engine. This means that this new Havok tech is most likely already available to the devs using Epic’s engine. So, let’s hope that some of them will take advantage of them.
