We only went 2.0 after 10 years, but our NPC AI middleware now really deserves it!
Rebuilt from the ground up for clean UE5 integration, modularity, customizability and extensibility. Whether you've used Kythera before or not, I think you'll be impressed. #gamedev #ai
🎉 Kythera 2.0 is here! Purpose-built for #AAA dev and shaped by years of collaboration, 2.0 maximizes extensibility and simplifies use—giving you the tools to bring ambitious worlds and innovative #gameplay to life.
