How AI Is Disclosed In Steam Games
A data view of public Steam AI usage disclosures: where AI appears, what content types are mentioned, which genres disclose it most often, and which upcoming or highly reviewed games are involved.
Where AI appears
Structured analysis estimates where disclosed AI appears: development work only, store or marketing material, AI-made content in the game, live player-facing AI features, or unclear usage.
AI-made content is included in the playable game, such as art, writing, audio, localization, or other assets.
The game includes AI that runs during play or is directly player-facing, such as generated dialogue, live generation, bots, or adaptive systems.
AI is disclosed only for store page, capsule, trailer, marketing, or promotional material.
The disclosure describes development work, not AI-made output in the store page or playable game.
The disclosure does not provide enough detail to tell where AI appears.
What AI Is Used For
category signalsproducts mention AI across two or more specific categories.
AI Use By Steam Genre
Steam tags overlap, so one game can count in multiple genres. Category columns prefer structured content analysis. Live AI uses structured where-AI-appears analysis.

Methodology
AI Transparency Index records products whose public Steam store pages include AI usage disclosure text. Structured scope is auto-classified from the raw disclosure and should be treated as an index aid, not a replacement for the source text.
These figures describe indexed, non-mature disclosures. They do not measure AI adoption across all Steam games, and classifications are not independent verification. Read the full methodology, definitions and limitations.
