Subnautica 2 and 007: First Light, both of which release this month, were not made using generative AI technologies.
First Light art director Rasmus Poulsen told Eurogamer that it was decided based on a “combined discussion between core executives” at developer IO Interactive that the team would not use generative AI for the James Bond game.
“I think it’s a large discussion. I’d rather not dive into the details, because it’s complicated,” Poulsen added.
It’s interesting to see high-profile games like Subnautica 2 and 007: First Light choosing not to use generative AI. This decision highlights the focus on traditional development methods and the unique creativity that comes from human input. It’ll be exciting to see how these games turn out!
