But soon they discovered a disheartening truth. These game files couldn't be read at all! The files of the game were nothing more than a bunch of code data. But they couldn't parse these code data at all. This could only mean one thing: the game "Silent Hill PT" uses a game engine that is completely different from previous games! When the director heard the news, he was very surprised. "No wonder the picture quality of this game is so realistic; it's like nothing we've ever seen before. Did it use a brand new game engine?" the director said in shock while examining the data. "Come on, try to see if you can roughly reverse-engineer the game engine based on these game files," the director immediately ordered again. But they were disappointed once more. They are at the top of the game industry and earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a month. Yet even with their skill, they couldn't figure it out. Not only could they not reverse-engineer it, but they didn't even have a clue! If the game engine can't be parsed, then this "Silent Hill PT" truly makes them unable to replicate it. "In this case, this 'Silent Hill PT' should be made by an industry giant!" All attempts had failed, and the director could only sigh helplessly: "Creating such an excellent game engine is no longer something a small workshop can do..." "According to the information we have received, the [New World Game Studio] that released 'Silent Hill PT' has an IP address in China," the director's secretary stepped forward and said. "Could this game have been made by a major company like Tencent, NetEase, or miHoYo?" "How is that possible!" Hearing this, the director sneered: "Those Chinese companies have been dealing with us for years, and their popular games are still made with engines developed by our company! And the quality of the games they develop is extremely poor. You say they could make a more powerful game engine? What a joke!" "Also, do you think with the character of those big companies, such a new game engine wouldn't be hyped up?!" The director directly rejected this possibility. He was well aware of the production level of the big companies in China, what they could do and what they couldn't. "Then which company made this game..." Now other staff members were unsure: "There are only a few big game companies in China, and none are the best in the world..." "If I had to guess, the New World Studio is most likely owned by Microsoft," the director speculated. "It's just that for some reason, Microsoft chose not to make it public for the time being and deliberately chose to release it in China to keep others in the dark." "Maybe Microsoft... maybe something big is brewing!" Microsoft is currently the world's largest Internet giant, and their game company's technology is also the industry's top. So the director was suspicious. Does Microsoft want to subvert the entire game industry and let the game truly and thoroughly enter the stage of the metaverse?! The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, "Silent Hill PT" was too real. As far as the senses were concerned, except for the lack of pain, it was no different from the real world. And the name of the studio that released "Silent Hill PT" is [New World]! It exactly corresponds to this! If this is the case, then Microsoft is ready to break new ground in the game industry! "Director, what should we do now..." At this time, the director's secretary said weakly: "The production staff can't dig out the slightest bit of information about the game." "Just now, the content production department also sent a message, saying that the game has stunned several employees, and some employees are clamoring to resign, saying that the game is too scary, they can't play!" The director frowned. Hearing this, he wanted to scold these useless subordinates loudly. But thinking about his own embarrassed appearance after being scared out of the game after playing for five minutes, he finally had to give up. "Let's get in touch with the materials that [New World Studio] has left in the background. Remember, we have to approach it carefully and express our willingness to cooperate with them." Thinking of this, the director smiled: "If we can successfully cooperate with Microsoft this time, we can also develop a realistic game like 'Silent Hill PT' at that time. With the development of the Metaverse, we can also take the lead!" ... At this moment, not only Valve but also large game companies such as Ubisoft, Konami, and Sony are doing the same. However, like Valve, they were also unable to parse out the file information of "Silent Hill PT." As for the content of the game, it was terrifying. The screams in the major game companies that day were so intense that some even attracted the police, all because they were scared while playing Silent Hill.
