Stormrise RTS is DX10 only


If you're a strategy fan, then chances are you've heard of Creative Assembly and its Total War series. Guess what? Creative Assembly is working on another title called Stormrise, a post-apocalyptic RTS, which would make its way to current-generation consoles and more importantly, the PC.

PC Games Hardware recently interviewed Artem Kulakov, the game's lead designer, who confirmed that Stormrise will be a DirectX10-only game. Do you hear that, XP gamers?
"From day one Stormrise has been designed as a New type of RTS for next generation consoles and PCs. Stormrise has been designed for DirectX 10 and Vista only right from the start. Integrating DX10.1 was an opportunity to increase performance and improve visual quality even further."

Good luck with the sales though, guys. Based on Steam's hardware survey results, 68.67% of its users still use XP, while Vista is still at 23.19%. While this survey is limited to Steam users, it's common knowledge that Windows XP is still the preferred OS even after seven years since its release.
