One of the most significant revolutions in video game development over the past decade unfolded without much fanfare. While two years ago, generative AI could still be considered a toy, today it is a working standard in the industry.

Publisher Square Enix has opened a new division. It will deal with AI developments not only for games, but also for “new forms of entertainment”.

NetEase has applied artificial intelligence to create realistic game avatars. And now MMORPG Justice users can transfer their faces to the game.

Artificial intelligence has been integrated into the RetroArch emulator of classic games. And now the program supports instant translation of Japanese text into English.

The textures of the famous RPG from Bethesda have become much clearer thanks to machine learning.
