Amazon Lumberyard is a free cross-platform triple-A game engine developed by Amazon and based on the architecture of CryEngine, which was licensed from Crytek in 2015.
 The engine features integration with Amazon Web Services to allow developers to build or host their games on Amazon's servers, as well as support for livestreaming via Twitch.
 Additionally, the engine includes Twitch ChatPlay, where viewers of the Twitch stream can influence the game through the associated chat, a method of play inspired by the "Twitch Plays Pokémon" phenomenon.
 The source code is available to end users with limitations: users may not publicly release the Lumberyard engine source code or use it to release their own game engine.
 Lumberyard launched on February 9, 2016 alongside GameLift, a fee-based managed service for deploying and hosting multiplayer games, intended to allow developers to easily develop games that attract "large and vibrant communities of fans."
 s of February 2017 , the software is currently in beta and can be used to build games for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, with limited support for iOS and Android, and support for Linux and Mac coming as well.

 The eighth-generation console versions of "Madden NFL 25" are the very first games to run on EA Sports's Ignite game engine.
 However, the seventh generation versions still run on EA's previous game engine, Impact.
 The seventh-generation versions featured former Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders on the cover, while the eighth-generation versions featured Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, and were released as launch titles for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2013.
A game engine is a software framework designed for the creation and development of video games. Developers use them to create games for consoles, mobile devices and personal computers.
 The core functionality typically provided by a game engine includes a rendering engine ("renderer") for 2D or 3D graphics, a physics engine or collision detection (and collision response), sound, scripting, animation, artificial intelligence, networking, streaming, memory management, threading, localization support, scene graph, and may include video support for cinematics.
 The process of game development is often economized, in large part, by reusing/adapting the same game engine to create different games, or to make it easier to port games to multiple platforms.
