Highlights of the trip included visiting the Grapes Pub in Southampton, which is to be depicted in the game, and measuring the wooden panelling of the RMS Olympic 's original first class lounge, which serves as the dining room of the White Swan Hotel in Alnwick. In November 2015, game producers Thomas Lynskey and Matthew DeWinkeleer went on an 11-day research trip to England. By the next day, however, the forums had been taken down.įor the project's research, the developers tracked down obscure artifacts or preserved pieces of Titanic 's sister ship Olympic in order to ensure proper recreations. That same day, the official forums were launched. During the podcast, several preview screenshots of the current state of the Grand Staircase were released. In July, a podcast was held to provide updates on the project. In April later that year, a playable demo was released, which featured select areas of the ship including the D-Deck Reception, Scotland Road, and the Turkish Bath. The first preview of the game in Unreal Engine 4 was uploaded to YouTube in March 2015, showing an early sinking animation of the D-Deck Reception in real-time. On December 25, 2012, the first preview of the game was released, showing a fly through of the Grand Staircase and using CryEngine 3 to develop the game, which would later be switched over to Unreal Engine 4.

Development ĭevelopment of the game began in November 2012, after the cancellation of the Titanic: Lost in the Darkness mod for Crysis 2. The game is expected to include a tour mode, log entries, and collectibles. Īn extensive demo for the game was released on December 25th, 2021.
