Tomb Raider: Legacy Of Atlantis Director Discusses Use of Generative AI In The Upcoming Unreal Engine 5 Remake

We first learned about Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis last year, but it appeared during last week’s PlayStation State of Play with a new February 12 release date and a Steam generative AI disclosure that indicates developers Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog used AI at one point, but notes that all AI assets have…

Tough Talk And Confronting Slop In Third Manifesto Game Jam

Starting in 2018, game developers have participated in Manifesto Jam. A recurring game jam that doubles as an opportunity for indie makers and zinesters alike to get a few things off their chest.

My nostalgia for Turok begins and ends with 1997’s Turok: Dinosaur Hunter for Nintendo 64.
