We had the chance to spend a couple of hours discussing Assassin's Creed Shadows with three of its rendering engineers and in this video, Alex shares some of the info he learned along with debug visualisations that show several of the new Anvil Engine features. It's a fantastic opportunity to take a look at the game from the inside out as opposed to 'visually reverse-engineering' the final game - and we hope you enjoy the coverage.

Love a good deep dive/interview! Yay! This is pretty condensed. Any chance of getting a raw(ish?) version of the interview? Always find sometimes the small things that get dropped, interesting.

yessssss my most-anticipated video!!! I’ve been flabbergasted at how good it looks for how well it runs, and vice versa! even on Deck, mind-blowingly! also, generally, salivating at the words “Alex” and “deep dive” appearing together. I have never been disappointed! and I hope Alex doesn’t have to be angry this time!!!
