has announced that its online gaming matchmaking service and tools will be
available for licensees of Epic Games's Unreal Engine 3 as part of Epic's
Integrated Partners Program:
The package will include GameSpy's matchmaking tools, 'Comrade' middleware for in- and out-of-game messaging and voice communication, it's 'Sake' secure online data storage tool, and 'Atlas' statistical system for dynamic leaderboards and tournaments both in game and on the web.
Said Epic president Mark Rein, "We're very excited to welcome GameSpy into the Integrated Partners Program. GameSpy is the leader in multiplayer gaming technology and has a vast amount of experience in developing rich and sophisticated multiplayer systems with community and commerce features that Epic and its Unreal Engine 3 licensees can directly benefit from. Having GameSpy integrate their technology into our engine and provide direct support for our licensees is a huge value-add for Unreal Engine 3."
The support is only for PC and PS3 ports (Xbox 360 developers already have
matchmaking support via Xbox Live) and will even allow for cross platform
multiplayer between PC and PS3 gamers.
In other news,

in-game middleware, which adds instant messaging, friend rosters and matchmaking
capabilities; 'Sake,' which allows Crytek to store player profiles and stats
online, and 'ATLAS,' which enables the creation of a stat system for
competitions in-game and on the Crysis Web site. |
