Let It Die: Inferno Discloses Broad Use of Generative AI Ahead of 4 December Launch

Steam's disclosure rule made the game's AI-assisted assets visible before release.

Overview

  • The game's Steam page says AI-generated content was used and then edited for parts of the in-game voices, music and graphics.
  • The disclosure names background signboard textures, record illustrations, InfoCast videos, and voices and music as affected asset categories.
  • Supertrick Games, not Grasshopper Manufacture, is developing the sequel, which is scheduled to launch on 4 December.
  • Valve's requirement that developers declare generative-AI use brought the details to shoppers before the game becomes available.
  • Coverage notes the proportion of AI material is unclear and highlights debate over transparency, including skepticism about mandatory disclosures voiced by Epic's Tim Sweeney.
