PCGH: interpret the previously announced minimum and recommended hardware requirements for it to know, that the engine is optimized for multi-core processors. Can you confirm that? If so, what is the thread-structure? Do you use a thread scheduler?

Oleg Maddox: We use a hybrid multi-threaded system. Separate threads come in to play in sound or asynchronous loading of resources in to play. We also use, for example, to load or calculate geometry TPL (Task Parallel Library) for the efficient use of available cores apply.

So this answer tells us the load will be spread over multiple cores, but for performance benefits of how many cores, we'll have to wait for actual numbers. There is no way to tell yet if a 3 or 4 core will give best results, or 6 or 8 cores.
