Ready at Dawn's (Lone Echo, The Order 1886) CTO said that going forwards everything new would be in Rust in 2018[1] (however, looking at their careers page all the dev jobs are asking for C++ and don't say anything about Rust). EA's SEED research division was also experimenting with Rust. As someone who's poked around in the current Rust gamedev ecosystem a bit, the publicly available libraries and frameworks aren't quite there yet for mid-large games (and are probably 1-2 years away at least for serious 3D development), though recent developments like the Legion ECS[2] (Amethyst, imo the most promising Rust 3D game engine seems like it will be switching from specs to Legion[3]), and Ultraviolet[4] (linear algebra library specifically for games & graphics which is faster than the alternatives for both runtime and compile times) are very promising. 1. https://twitter.com/AndreaPessino/status/1021532074153394176 https://twitter.com/AndreaPessino/status/1021532074153394176 2. https://crates.io/crates/legion https://crates.io/crates/legion 3. https://github.com/amethyst/rfcs/issues/22 https://github.com/amethyst/rfcs/issues/22 for a discussion about potentially moving from specs to Legion 4. https://crates.io/crates/ultraviolet https://crates.io/crates/ultraviolet
