Ubisoft has released some new screenshots and artworks for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.

Naturally, what came to our mind was that the Disrupt engine would be an evolution of the AnvilNext engine, the engine used in Assassin’s Creed III. Therefore, we decided to ask Sebastien Viard, Technical Director on Watch Dogs, about it and whether this engine would be plagued by the same performance issues we’ve encountered in Assassin’s Creed III. Continue reading Watch Dogs Engine Won’t Be Plagued By AnvilNext’s Engine Performance Issues
