""The truth of the matter is that there's an unreleased title themed around AI, and for that specific title, a programmer mentioned they're deliberately having AI handle the programming as well," said Hino. "They used that as an example to suggest that an era like that might be coming, and that's what got blown out of proportion." "On the flip side, if they really were creating 80%-90% percent of the code with AI and successfully making games that way, it'd be incredibly impressive,""
""and they'd be in high demand from the AI community. We haven't reached that level yet. That said, it's also true that AI is enabling time savings that can't be dismissed, and I believe this has the potential to upend common sense in game development. It might shift us from a world where developing the AAA games everyone wants to play takes 5-10 years to one where we get to enjoy them every two years.""
Level-5 denies fully shifting to AI-driven programming and rejects claims that AI currently writes 80% or more of the studio's game code. An unreleased AI-themed title included deliberate AI-driven programming as an illustrative example, which became exaggerated online. Many game companies reportedly use AI without publicizing it. AI is producing measurable time savings and has the potential to upend conventional game-development practices. Widespread generative AI use could shorten AAA development timelines from typical 5–10 years to nearer two years, but true 80–90% AI-driven code generation and fully AI-created games have not yet been achieved.
