- Sni­per Eli­te III, Mur­de­red: Soul Suspect and Lich­dom add exclu­si­ve opti­miza­ti­ons for AMD’s indus­try-lea­ding gam­ing hardware -

SUNNYVALE, Calif. — Mar. 19, 2014 — AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announ­ced three new game deve­lo­per part­ner­ships for AMD Gam­ing Evol­ved, an ISV rela­ti­onship pro­gram that assists deve­lo­pers in crea­ting an enhan­ced PC gam­ing expe­ri­ence. Rebel­li­on Deve­lo­p­ments, Squa­re Enix® and Xavi­ant are the latest deve­lo­pers to join AMD in opti­mi­zing PC games to make them look bet­ter and run bet­ter for every gamer on AMD hardware.

“AMD is proud to play an instru­men­tal role in enab­ling qua­li­ty PC gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces,” said Rit­che Cor­pus, direc­tor of ISV gam­ing and alli­ances, AMD. “With col­la­bo­ra­ti­on bet­ween AMD and lea­ding stu­di­os like Rebel­li­on, Squa­re Enix and Xavi­ant, we can work tog­e­ther to opti­mi­ze the image qua­li­ty and per­for­mance of high­ly-anti­ci­pa­ted titles for an inten­se gam­ing experience.”

Rebel­li­on Deve­lo­p­ments is curr­ent­ly deve­lo­ping “Sni­per Eli­te III,” the latest chap­ter in an award-win­ning series that pro­mi­ses to take gamers to the exo­tic ter­rain of WW2’s North Afri­ca conflict.

“AMD was an incre­di­ble tech­ni­cal part­ner to Rebel­li­on during the deve­lo­p­ment of Sni­per Eli­te V2,” said Chris King­s­ley, CTO, Rebel­li­on. “Today we proud­ly renew that spi­rit of coope­ra­ti­on in an offi­ci­al gam­ing part­ner­ship that will bring full Man­t­le API sup­port to bear in Sni­per Eli­te III. Through nati­ve Man­t­le sup­port in our Asu­ra Engi­ne, AMD Rade­on™ cus­to­mers will uni­que­ly recei­ve a level of per­for­mance that couldn’t be achie­ved wit­hout AMD’s visio­na­ry efforts with lower level gra­phics APIs.”

Squa­re Enix is the publisher behind “Mur­de­red: Soul Suspect™,” a super­na­tu­ral thril­ler that chal­lenges play­ers to sol­ve the most dif­fi­cult case of all: their own murder.

“AMD and Squa­re Enix have enjoy­ed a histo­ry of col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with past titles,” said Nao­to Sugi­ya­ma, exe­cu­ti­ve pro­du­cer, “Mur­de­red: Soul Suspect”. “That rela­ti­onship remains strong as we work tog­e­ther on a rich assort­ment of opti­mi­zed DirectX® 11 effects for Mur­de­red: Soul Suspect. This com­pre­hen­si­ve effort will ensu­re that all PC gamers recei­ve the defi­ni­ti­ve expe­ri­ence they deserve.”

Xavi­ant is the deve­lo­per behind “Lich­dom®,” an explo­ra­ti­on of a time known as The Sixth Age of Roth, whe­r­ein play­ers will wield unfa­thomable power chan­ne­led through bra­cers gifted by an enig­ma­tic patron. The title will fea­ture sup­port for AMD’s pio­nee­ring Tress­FX Hair and AMD TrueAu­dio technologies.

“AMD has demons­tra­ted ima­gi­na­ti­on and pas­si­on for PC audio with the deve­lo­p­ment of AMD TrueAu­dio tech­no­lo­gy,” said Mark Mura­ski, Lead Sound Desi­gner, Xavi­ant. “We are taking full advan­ta­ge of that tech­no­lo­gy in Lich­dom with the deve­lo­p­ment of an uncom­mon­ly immersi­ve audio envi­ron­ment. As play­ers wield unfa­thomable power in the Sixth Age of Roth, AMD Rade­on™ gamers with ordi­na­ry ste­reo head­sets will expe­ri­ence ful­ly posi­tio­nal 3D audio and acou­stic envi­ron­ments mode­led after the real world.”

Rebel­li­on Deve­lo­p­ments, Xavi­ant and Squa­re Enix will share addi­tio­nal details about the­se exci­ting part­ner­ships as their respec­ti­ve games near public release.
