You’d need to look at the actual implementation, it’s hard to speculate from a tiny amount of data. What game are you referencing?
And as someone who has done multi threaded programming I can tell you that for games it is unlikely that they can just add more cores. You need work that truly can be split up, meaning that each core doesn’t needs work to do that doesn’t rely on the results from another core
Graphics rendering is easy for this and it’s why gpus have a crazy number of cores. But you aren’t going to do graphics compute on the cpu
Potentially suggests, but does not prove
And I’m quite skeptical they they truly have an example of a game that is running 100% on all 8 cores, high maybe but 100%?

For that number to be 8 though suggests that there’s just a “number of workers” variable hard-coded somewhere.
