Ubisoft unveils stunning Snowdrop engine footage

The Snowdrop engine has been given the video treatment at GDC this week courtesy of publisher Ubisoft.

For those who aren’t aware, the impressive tech is the driving force behind the company’s upcoming online action-shooter, Tom Clancy’s The Division, and has attracted much media attention since the game’s announcement last year.

Developer Massive Entertainment showcased the tech again in San Francisco this week, depicting some stunning-looking lightning effects among other highlights.

Still, don’t take our word for it: check out the new video below, and let us know what you think in the comments section. The Division is supposedly due to ship later this year, though an exact date remains elusive.
