Iko kunyora-kunyora kwakapedzerwa kwegore rimwe gare gare munaJanuary 1999, nokuti yakashaya musi wokutanga wakabudiswa gore.
Demo yevadzidzi vakawanda yakazviita muna March '99, haina kuratidza chinhu chakavimbiswa uye chakakundikana kufadza. Dambudziko guru rekugadzirisa kwose kwaizoitika sezvo boka racho rakashandura demo ravo reE3 kusvika pakaterera kusvika 10-12 FPS, isina nguva yekuigadzirisa, yakaratidzwa uye Eidos Interactive, mari yeIon Storm uye muparidzi we mutambo, wakasarudza kutora.
