120fps Surreal Picture Quality Recreates a
Future Sci-Fi World Bursting with Infinite Survival-Genre
Imagination
SHANGHAI, Feb. 4, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW), a leading provider
of visual processing solutions, today announced that the latest
release of the award winning mobile game Earth: Revival
integrates Pixelworks' Rendering Accelerator SDK to significantly
enhance the visual quality for mobile gaming. Coupled with a
Pixelworks visual processor, the Rendering Accelerator SDK works as
a bridge to deliver an exceptional 120fps visual experience on
mobile devices with low power consumption, immersing players in a
more authentic and vivid future sci-fi world.
Earth: Revival is set in the early 22nd
century. Faced with the rampaging of alien creatures, the
technological metropolis crumbles into ruins, bringing production
to a standstill and resulting in an energy crisis and ecological
devastation. As survivors of this catastrophe, players must seek
survival resources to ensure their own safety, while also taking on
the role of future warriors, uniting to eradicate the alien threat
and restore their homeland as well as civilization.
In the context of Earth: Revival, the key to creating a
truly immersive experience begins with a well-crafted virtual world
and storyline, which is then made feel real through the visual
presentation of survival experiences and combat scenes. Capturing
the desired realism, including a sense of presence for players,
requires the delivery of high frame rate graphics with consistently
smooth and clear visuals over a prolonged period. However,
achieving this level of visual performance frequently exceeds the
rendering capabilities of smartphone GPUs, leading to issues such
as excessive power and battery consumption and device overheating
when playing high frame rate mobile games.
To overcome these performance challenges associated with high
frame rate mobile gaming, Pixelworks engaged in a deep
collaboration with the technical team of Earth: Revival.
With the integration of the IRX Rendering Acceleration SDK into
Earth: Revival, a visual processing channel is established
between the game engine and the rendering acceleration processor
inside the mobile device, which offloads rendering pressure from
the GPU and ensures stable and high-quality visuals are delivered
to the display, while also improving power consumption for extended
mobile gaming. Players can activate the IRX gaming experience
through a dedicated button in the game interface. Additionally,
developers can dynamically deploy rendering power resources based
on the diverse types and gameplay characteristics of various games,
enabling the game creator to fully and reliably convey their
artistic intent.
"Earth: Revival aspires to be more than just a fun game
for its players—it envisions an immersive and tangible future world
infused with science fiction," said William, Producer of Earth:
Revival. "We are pleased to collaborate with Pixelworks on
this game, bringing the imaginative future world to life on mobile
devices in a more authentic manner. We will continue to optimize
the gaming experience while ensuring top-notch game graphics,
providing players with a more smooth and stable visual experience
on mobile devices."
"As a sci-fi survival game, Earth: Revival embodies the
development team's high regard and contemplation for science
fiction, whether in the shaping of the worldview, or the design of
the storyline and visual scenes," said Jun
Fang, Senior Marketing Director of Pixelworks. "We hope that
Pixelworks can help game development teams better deliver their
ingenious and imaginative content on smartphones to a broad mobile
gaming audience. Pixelworks looks forward to fully utilizing its
visual processing expertise and leveraging its IRX rendering
acceleration technology to enable more mobile gamers to immerse
themselves in the exploration of their own sci-fi future world of
Earth: Revival."
