We use AI as a technical tool to support our human developers. While all of our 3D game models, environments, and core game art are hand-crafted by our artists, we use AI to assist with 2D rendering and localization. For 2D promotional art, AI is used to composite, light, and polish images based strictly on our original in-game assets. We also utilize AI-assisted translation pipelines to help localize our massive world into multiple languages for our global community.

AI tools were used as part of the game's visual production and post-production workflow. The game's 3D assets, environments, characters, animations, and scenes are created and rendered by the developer. AI is primarily used to upscale lower-resolution renders to higher resolutions, helping reduce rendering time while maintaining the desired visual quality. In some cinematic sequences, AI-assisted tools are also used as part of the production process. Additionally, AI may be used for certain visual corrections, modifications, or minor fixes to rendered images instead of re-rendering an entire scene. AI is therefore used as a supporting tool in the development and post-production process, while the overall artistic direction, 3D production, scene creation, rendering, and final implementation are handled by the developer.

Generative AI was used near the end of the development process to make the colored fur on the wolves seen in the cinematic video and also used side by side with the developer to create a simple but clean UI (user interface).

Generative AI was used to assist with preparing translations and to support the development of the game's code.
