Ubisoft Scalar is a platform-independent technology and aims to offer developers and gamers maximum freedom while taking full advantage of thecloud-native experience for the enhancement of the games of the future. This solution places every component and system of traditional game engines independently in the cloud creating a model distributed on a potentially unlimited number of machines. Games based on this technology can harness a virtually infinite amount of computing power, resulting in virtual worlds and highly realistic simulations.
