Where do games disclose AI use?

AI stock images and generative AI content is occasionally used in the development process of art assets we use for things like, but not limited to, event themes.

Generative AI was used in a limited capacity during development to assist with marketing artwork.

The Art Director chose a composition for each background. They were then made by professional artists or, for a few, bought on Adobe Stock. Finally, the art director enhanced each background in Photoshop and also through LeonardoAI.

Character audio is generated by AI.

AI was used to generate the images of the characters in the default in-game database. There is also a 100% optional, opt-in only AI Chatbot assistant that can help provide booking ideas.

Usage of AI-Generated and Assisted Illustrations in Shadow Empire Post-release Illustration Creation Process The developers use Midjourney and Nano Banana to generate high-resolution illustrations for new functionality added post-release, particularly for Vidcom and Stratagem artwork. These images are often post-processed by hand, as well as enhanced using tools like Magnific, Topaz Labs, or other upscaling and refinement software. AI in Post-release Portrait Art Portraits: A base image is generated using Midjourney with a generic prompt such as “portrait of young woman, military.” Smaller parts (eyes, nose, mouth, hair, etc.) are overlaid using DALL·E to create variations. Aging effects are achieved by rendering an older skin texture with partial transparency over the younger base face. The older the character, the more opaque the overlay becomes. (Note: Eyes and lips often retain a youthful appearance.) This effect is gradually applied using a limited number of sprite layers, allowing nuanced visual transitions. AI-Generated Art in Post-release Game Content The game includes AI-generated and AI-assisted illustrations for Vidcoms and Stratagems. All such AI-generated art is pre-generated — no generative AI tools are called or used in real-time by the game itself. The intention is to provide players with an option to toggle between the original and updated AI-enhanced graphics via preferences. (Note: This is an aim and may not yet apply to all content.)

AI interface images

The package image of this game was created using multiple AI tools. Background image and part of the background character: Created using Stable Diffusion and provided under the CreativeML Open RAIL-M license. Part of the logo design: Created by Sonic-Alpha using OpenAI's generative AI, "ChatGPT," under the paid "ChatGPT Plus" plan. No AI-generated elements are included in the main game or in-game content.

All in-game content is created and authored by the development team. Like most modern game development, our tools and software may include AI-assisted features for internal workflows such as iteration, editing, or placeholder experimentation. These tools do not generate final player-facing content.

We have used in-house AI models to generate background assets, font, and some voices. We will continue to advance the practical application of AI in art creation. To discuss the latest progress in this field, welcome to contact us.

Für Bilder zu machen

We leveraged AI-generated content to enrich our game with elements that would have been otherwise challenging to include. Specifically, we used AI for the AI character voiceover in different languages, a feature made possible thanks to this technology. In this case it made even more sense since the character is actually an AI. Otherwise, all the core art and visual elements of the game have been designed by human talents.

BGM

We do not use generative AI in the game. For community-requested languages that are not officially supported, we use DeepL to assist with localization, with the help of community members who review and improve the translations.

Chat-GPT and Sora were used to enhance some of the cutscenes, along with Suno and Eleven Labs for voice acting.

All AI content is placeholder assets until the full release. This includes: Spoken dialog (rendered via Eleven Labs), and some story-related images (generated with Midjourney). The vocals will be recorded by voice actors once the script is completely finalized, and any art will be redone by human artists before the 1.0 release.
