WHY V3

One engine, a wider frontier.

Modern graphics

Unified C++ API with Dynamic RHI across D3D11, D3D12, Vulkan, Metal and OpenGL.

Modern C++

Move to C++23 with a refreshed core, build tooling and production-oriented workflow.

More platforms

Reach ARM desktops, OpenXR devices, mobile, Xbox and WebAssembly from one codebase.

A CLEARER RENDERING PATH

Write shaders once. Target multiple backends.

Write HLSL once, then use axslcc to compile it for D3D11, D3D12, Vulkan, Metal, and OpenGL.
