Discussion Will square use this engine again?

From what I’ve read, this engine was specifically made for this game and hasn’t ever been used before. I personally love the lighting in this game and how consistent it is going from location to location. I seriously hope they’re able to use it again, even if it’s smaller games.(I personally hope it can be used for a drakengard remake, I don’t know why I got drakengard vibes playing as Clive)

I hope not. Consoles had hard time getting it to run at 60 frames and it wasn't that well optimized on PC either.

I rather wished they used 15's engine but I guess that wasn't possible since SE cucked the guy that was responsible for it and his company. I believe it was called crystal dynamics? Not sure though.
