According to the Guild, the gaming companies that made deals agreed not to misuse artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and to pay actors a fair wage.

The Guild did not list all the companies that signed agreements, but mentioned that among them were Little Bat Games (creators of Vampire Therapist) and Studio Wildcard (creators of the ARK series). An indie developer, Francisco González, who created the games Lamplight City and A Golden Wake, also signed a deal.

Meanwhile, the Guild continues its strike against major gaming companies, which started on July 26.
