FACT SHEET

DESCRIPTION:
Orion™ is a patented collection of software technologies that optimize game engines for superior performance in a #streaming environment. Developed by the engineers at id Software, renowned for the industry-leading id® Tech 6game engineOrion is a game- and platform-agnostic game #streaming technology that will stream video games at lower latency and lower bandwidth, making #streaming games accessible to more people, in more areas, at higher quality.
 
In contrast to game #streaming services that focus on hardware solutions to stream games, Orion is game engine-based technology that optimizes a game for the cloud. The Orion technology is complementary to the hardware technology in data centers built by other #streaming providers, ensuring much better results when paired together.
 
DETAILS:
 
Major Performance Benefits 
Integrated within the game engine itself, Orion can achieve dramatic latency reductions of up to 20% per frame plus up to 40% less bandwidth required.
 
Complementary Technology
Orion’s software innovations work seamlessly with nearly any game, game engine, or #streaming provider, making Orion’s incredible performance benefits an additive benefit to innovations in hardware and connectivity from #streaming providers.
 
A Better #streaming Experience for Players
A game using Orion offers high-speed performance with imperceptible latency, even in a twitchy shooter; lower usage against ISP bandwidth caps; and a wider availability, making quality play available to players living far from data centers.
 
Flawless Execution and Ease of Use for Developers
The Orion SDK is easily integrated into almost any game, which means developers can deliver best-in-class experiences to players through #streaming, with minimal additional development effort.
 
Lower Costs, Wider Reach for #streaming Providers
Orion can help providers reach larger audiences, at reduced costs, with a superior level of service. Orion makes possible substantially reduced capital investments in data centers, and can materially lower the cost of operating a #streaming service.
 
Live Tech Test Coming in 2019
Bethesda will begin public trials of Orion soon, offering fans a chance to stream DOOM® (2016) at home, for free. Players can sign-up now through the DOOM Slayers Club at www.SlayersClub.com.
