Havok update from Dublin games firm

Dublin-based Havok have released an update to their physics and animation tools for PlayStation 3, Xbox360, and Nintendo Wii.

‘Havok 4.5’ has been optimized for the PlayStation 3, Sony’s new console soon to be launched in Ireland.

“We made sure that we met our customers’ demand for a PS3 optimized version of Havok as soon as possible” commented David O’Meara, Havok CEO. “Havok 4.5’s ability to allow developers to massively scale game content will make it possible to develop ever more compelling, realistic and complex worlds that harness the full power of new generation architectures”.

After an agreement with Sony in 2005, Havok Physics middleware comes with PS3 ‘Software Development Kit’ for games developers working on the console.

The Dublin company’s software was used on last year’s high profile games such as Oblivion, F.E.A.R., Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent, and Superman Returns, and PS3 titles such as MotorStorm (pictured above), Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom, and Tony Hawk's Project 8.
