Blue Box admits Abandoned’s PS5 app was a ‘major disaster’

Early use of Unreal Engine 5 is cited as one of the causes of the problem

Kahraman claims that the app was already a problem and that this part of it Due to the fact that the game is made Unreal Engine 5, but pSends more interesting content soon.

Abandoned app announced with promise to give scope Immersive real-time experience For the user, even take advantage of some of the PS5’s differential technologies such as 3D audio and console feedback. However, players were very disappointed with the release of the first trailer.

Instead of showing off a cool and immersive new trailer, the same very few second-long video that had already been announced on Twitter was revealed. Hassan Kahraman says he knew the event would be disappointing for many players:

“Basically we had to cut out some footage from the opening teaser and I realized it wouldn’t be a good idea to use the same video we have on Twitter and put it there because it’s literally four seconds into the video and it doesn’t show us much.”

One of Kahraman’s justification relates to the use of the new version of the Unreal Engine graphics engine. According to him, since they were among the first teams to develop a game on Unreal Engine 5, there were some unexpected issues with the development of this content before PS5 and it delayed the news a bit.

“We weren’t alone – we had a couple of other teams working on it, it just got completely out of hand. Maybe it’s because we were using Unreal Engine 5, which is early access, which is really not recommended for a project like this. Why did we need the resources he had.”
