Looks like some nice upgrades to Dragon Engine. Sega AM2 of Virtua Fighter fame also got integrated into RGG Studio and are no longer forced to make games for Arcade. Would be stoked if they implemented more depth to the combat since RGG and AM2 are also working together on VF6.

They used UE4 for Ishin, but Dragon Engine for Infinite Wealth. Makes it a wait and see with this new game.

Agree, defenilty new vf and project century looks like significal graphicaly jump from previous games so open question. Either their improved their engine or moved to ue.
They only used Unreal for one title. RGG said they are committing to their proprietary tech earlier this year. I'm pretty sure the new VF is using Dragon Engine too. Visually it looks like their new games could be dropping PS4/Xone support and and the visual base will be current-gen consoles. Both VF6 and Century are in early stages of development and won't release for a while. For games outside of RGG/AM2 studio like Jet Set Radio, Sega is using Unreal.
RGG said they have their studio learn Unreal and Unity to see where their engine deficiency lies, and that helps them upgrade Dragon Engine.

- With the future of the series in mind, you're training new recruits to give them a wide range of experience.
Yes. However, the Dragon Engine is something we absolutely cannot do without when making Yakuza , and we will continue to develop our own engine.
Dragon Engine focuses development resources on the features necessary for "Ryu ga Gotoku," and the biggest advantage is that new features can be added quickly. If you use a general-purpose engine, you can send an email to support and get a response in about three days, but if you ask the programmer next to you, it only takes five seconds. I think this difference is big.
But that doesn't mean we should just think, "Our game engine is the best!" I think that we programmers, in particular, should always have a sense of crisis and think, " They're better than us, we have to work harder."
