When you say bigger games, it means open-world titles. For the past few years, open-world video games have been in the mainstream gaming market.
These include popular adventure titles, such as "Red Dead Redemption," "Death Stranding," "Grand Theft Auto V," and many more. But, they are also criticized by many players, saying that these open-world titles' sizes are too much.
Ubisoft's Scalar tech is also being criticized since it is expected to make open-world games bigger. But, the company defended its innovation.
Ubisoft Defends Open-World Game Tech
According to PlayStation Lifestyle's latest report, Ubisoft agreed to players' criticisms. The title creator said that bigger games are not always the best options.
Gaming fans play Ubisoft games at the 2019 Electronic Entertainment Expo, also known as E3, opening in Los Angeles, California on June 11, 2019. - Gaming fans and developers gather, connecting thousands of the brightest, best and most innovative in the interactive entertainment industry and a chance for many to preview new games.

"Do we need games to be bigger? No. Are some games going to benefit from being able to be bigger? Absolutely," said the managing director of Ubisoft Stockholm, Patrick Bach.
He added that the new Scalar tech is different since it doesn't dictate to developers what titles they need to build. This means that the new open-world tool will provide the freedom of creativity while offering bigger and more detailed game developments.
What is Ubisoft Scalar?
Ubisoft's official blog post explained that Scalar is not a game engine. It is a tool that can be used to enhance video games.
The game publisher further explained that it is a central technology that can be accessed via all Ubisoft Studios.
