Square Enix has registered the Radec Engine trademark
On September 1, 2022, Square Enix registered the Radec Engine trademark in Japan, probably its new proprietary graphics engine. The news became public only a few days later.The Radec Engine Logo Currently Square Enix has only one registered internal engine, the Luminous Engine, developed by Luminous Productions, which will be used for the upcoming Forspoken, a truly ambitious open world action RPG . Some of his studios use third party engines, such as Unreal Engine 4 and Unity.
Unfortunately, the details on the Radec Engine are scarce, if at all. The fact that it is an engine is also basically a hypothesis, given the vagueness of the recording. So far, no projects have been announced using it and nothing related has been shown, so it's impossible to give specifics of any kind.
We hope Square Enix will present it as soon as possible, just in case, so as to show what it can do.
