AI Disclosure Appears on Steam for 'Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis'
A new disclaimer has surfaced on the Steam page for the upcoming remake, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis. The statement addresses the use of artificial intelligence during the game's development.
Game Details"AI-assisted tools were used during development to support some early exploration and temporary development content. Any AI-assisted assets were either replaced or refined by humans in order to maintain the creative and artistic vision of the development team."
- Developer: Flying Wild Hog and Crystal Dynamics
- Release Date: February 12 (previously scheduled for 2026)
- Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch 2
- Description: A remake of the original Tomb Raider, featuring Lara Croft searching for the Scion of Atlantis across various countries.
AI disclosures are becoming a common sight on game store pages. For instance, Crimson Desert included a similar notice stating generative AI was used for some 2D prop assets during development. In that case, some AI-generated artwork reportedly appeared in the final game, despite initial promises of replacement.
Notable Opinions (for context):
- Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney argued that requiring AI disclosure in game stores "makes no sense," as AI will be involved in nearly all future production.
- Game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz stated that games made with AI may lack soul, but acknowledged beneficial uses of AI during development.
- Actress Ashly Burch expressed that AI should never replace human creativity.
Eurogamer has requested further clarification from the developers on their specific use of AI technology.
