Enfusion is an engine currently (2023) in development by Bohemia Interactive in order to replace Real Virtuality as their common base for future games. As of 2019, Bohemia Interactive assigned most of its development teams to this project[1]. This engine is already in use on DayZ as of 0.63, which was released in 2018[2]. However, it only makes use of Enfusion's rendering, animation[1] and scripting[3] systems.

Enfusion is announced to allow far more flexibility and scalability than Real Virtuality, specifically through modding with the availability of extensive development tools and ability for modders to create their own plugins for Enfusion[1]. Furthermore, Enfusion would also allow modders to interact with the games' core features and mechanics.

On 2021-12-16, Bohemia Interactive revealed an Enfusion trailer along its new website: https://enfusionengine.com/.
