I've been working on something new since August 2025 and have decided to finally spill the beans:
Introducing "Project Echo", a deterministic Record & Replay tool for PS5:

Watch the PlayStation State of Play trailer for 007: First Light, coming May 27 to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
What is this wizardry
Thought the same, it's pretty good ๐ Might have to go up on the render meme wall in the office
Using it actively on the task Iโm working on instead of in the background for other things doesnโt work at all for me
I had a pretty similar experience with it. The two areas where it works reasonably well is debugging and research, but only if I am juggling multiple topics and have a good idea of what Iโm looking for, i.e. doing some groundwork for me on bugs so I have some additional info by the time I get there
Mark your calendars ๐
, Cross-Progression is coming to HITMAN World of Assassination on February 3rd.

I really hope that AMD puts this out in official form even if it has worse quality than RDNA4 level FSR4. It would be a great way to allow older GPUs on the AMD side to get in on the ML-reconstruction train even if it costs more on them.

We might need to get tshirts printed with that one๐
Seems like the temporal filtering approach that is used in most other setups is exponential moving average based but that struggles a lot with low ray counts or needs to be tweaked in a way where it isn't very responsive so it's really interesting to see a different approach here!
How do you react to changing environments? I assume using the clear state but if you have moving lights for example that trigger the clear you get a lot of initial updates with not a lot of rays per probe if I understand the setup correctly. Are you doing anything special to handle those cases?
Finally watched the recording earlier, great presentation! Any chance you can provide some additional information on the temporal filtering you did for the probes & world cache? Especially the 64(or less) rays per probe seem like that number could be on the noisy side.
State of Play presents a 007 First Light deep dive on September 3

Something just started showing up in the App Store ๐
I heard that too! :)
Here's one for all the game devs out there www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Probably not an option given the relocation but posting it just in case. We are looking for an animator on 007 first light: ioi.dk/careers
Good luck with the search!
Man, I know my outreach here is limited but I just got laid off at 2K after working on BioShock 4 for a year and a half. To say I'm gutted is a complete understatement.
If anyone is in need of a friendly, fast and heavily driven animator with a lot of games experience please do let me know :)

We are looking for a Vulkan engineer to join our render team at IOI! Available locations are Copenhagen, Malmo and Barcelona. Feel free to reach out if you are interested or have question ๐
