Fortnite creator Epic Games has instructed its developers to adopt an 'AI First' production model to complete a new Disney title currently in development. According to reports, the game—a shooter that combines characters from the Marvel and Star Wars franchises—has experienced a delay.
Development teams have been directed to use artificial intelligence tools, such as Anthropic's Claude, to finish the project. This would mark a significant shift in the production process, with the stated goal of reducing or eliminating manual code writing.
The news comes at a time of increasing adoption of AI tools in the video game industry. Epic's move could represent an important case study for the impact of these technologies on the timelines and methods of developing major AAA projects.
At the moment, no further details have been provided regarding the specific implementation methods or revised release timelines for the game. Nevertheless, the news has sparked debate about the future role of human developers in video game creation.
