Hello, Tensor Citizens!

In 2026, our team is back to business, stronger than ever. So we’re here once again with the new batch of some SPINE development insights from the last few weeks! Let’s crack this open.

Just Like a Movie

When we talk about SPINE, we’re always focusing on the gameplay’s cinematic feeling. But cutscenes, both pre-rendered and engine-based, are crucial for deeper players’ immersion in the story.

This is My Spine

We’ve mentioned multiple times that Redline isn’t the only Spine owner in Tensor City. Every implant is unique to its owner, not only in terms of abilities but, of course, in design. To make them more distinct and personal for each owner, we add special visual effects.

Here’s Edda Kopp’s Spine, for example.

It's always stay's calm and fluid, like the character itself. In contrast to Redline's Spine, who reacts to extreme situations.

Things in Motion

Combat system and locomotion are always places for improvement, so we’re tweaking and polishing them every day, reaching for perfect balance, without forgetting to add new things. For example, new finishing moves for Redline.

Art Propaganda

Tensor City is a place of constant battle, where all weapons are used, from guns to art. Propaganda and advertising posters sell ideas, against graffiti revealing the truth.
