But even still, I never just assume that studios are all utilising generative AI.<\/p>\n<p>If anything, I assume that studios are avoiding generative AI like the plague.

But using AI to make burdensome tasks easier is entirely different from using it to cut out the need for voice actors, as Arc Raiders has done.<\/p>\n<p>The idea that a studio that was <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/nordic9.com\/news\/nexon-purchases-another-third-of-nexon-for-96m-news5839049909\/\" target=\"_blank\">acquired by Nexon for $96 million<\/a> needs to cut corners by not paying voice actors to record lines is laughable.

At the end of his short interview on the uses of generative AI, he settles on how &#8220;human creativity&#8221; is the answer to rising above the competition. It&#8217;s a truth that makes Arc Raiders&#8217; use of generative AI all the more frustrating: It really is a stain on what is otherwise one of the best multiplayer shooters I&#8217;ve played in a very long time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"77799555-a3c5-4742-8f8d-5c2d25bf2b2c\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Arc Raiders Field Depots\" data-dimension48=\"Arc Raiders Field Depots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1080px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"TCou4LpWxSUzfBu3QPeR6P\" name=\"arc-raiders-boxout\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/every-game-company-is-now-using-ai-nexons-ceo-defends-the-use-of-generative-ai-in-game-development-in-the-wake-of-arc-raiders-controversy-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arc-raiders-field-depot-locations-off-the-radar\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"77799555-a3c5-4742-8f8d-5c2d25bf2b2c\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Arc Raiders Field Depots\" data-dimension48=\"Arc Raiders Field Depots\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Arc Raiders Field Depots<\/strong><\/a>: Where to find &#8217;em<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arc-raiders-field-crate-locations-down-to-earth\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Arc Raiders Field Crates<\/strong><\/a>: How to use &#8217;em<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arc-raiders-dog-collar-location-train-scrappy\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Arc Raiders dog collar<\/strong><\/a>: Train Scrappy<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arc-raiders-best-skills\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Arc Raiders best skills<\/strong><\/a>: Survive the surface<br \/><strong><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arc-raiders-expeditions\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Arc Raiders Expeditions<\/strong><\/a>: Retire your Raider<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/every-game-company-is-now-using-ai-nexons-ceo-defends-the-use-of-generative-ai-in-game-development-in-the-wake-of-arc-raiders-controversy\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arc Raiders has taken the gamers by storm, achieving more than 700,000 concurrent players over the weekend, beating Helldivers 2&#8217;s player record, and just generally proving that extraction shooters can indeed be fun.
