The highly recommended first edition of Game Engine Architecture provided a

complete guide to the theory and practice of game engine software development.

Updating the content to match today’s landscape of game engine architecture, this

second edition continues to thoroughly cover the major components that make up a

typical commercial game engine.

New to the Second Edition

• Information on new topics, including the latest variant of the C++ programming

language, C++11, and the architecture of the eighth generation of gaming consoles,

the Xbox One and PlayStation 4

• New chapter on audio technology covering the fundamentals of the physics,

mathematics, and technology that go into creating an AAA game audio engine

• Updated sections on multicore programming, pipelined CPU architecture and

optimization, localization, pseudovectors and Grassman algebra, dual quaternions,

SIMD vector math, memory alignment, and anti-aliasing

• Insight into the making of Naughty Dog’s latest hit, The Last of Us

The book presents the theory underlying various subsystems that comprise a

commercial game engine as well as the data structures, algorithms, and software

interfaces that are typically used to implement them. It primarily focuses on the engine

itself, including a host of low-level foundation systems, the rendering engine, the

collision system, the physics simulation, character animation, and audio. An in-depth

discussion on the “gameplay foundation layer” delves into the game’s object model,

world editor, event system, and scripting system. The text also touches on some

aspects of gameplay programming, including player mechanics, cameras, and AI.

An awareness-building tool and a jumping-off point for further learning, Game Engine

Architecture, Second Edition gives you a solid understanding of both the theory and

common practices employed within each of the engineering disciplines covered. The

book will help you on your journey through this fascinating and multifaceted field.
