Havok announced today that powerhouse developer Blizzard Entertainment has licensed their Havok 4.0 gameplay physics and animation tool which was released this past July. Havok 4.0 allows developers to select the tool that is right for them from an entire suite spanning gameplay physics, character animation, behaviors and special effects, and apply them to their platform of choice, from Windows XP 64-bit to PlayStation 3 all the way to MacOS X.

"Havok 4.0 will add power and flexibility to our development process," said Mike Morhaime, president and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We’re looking forward to utilizing this technology with our upcoming games."
