Epic Games reportedly pivoting to "AI first" game development model

Epic Games is shifting its game development strategy to an 'AI first' approach, where AI technology will play a central role in creating games. This decision was reportedly made in response to the delays in the Marvel and Star Wars shooter, which was initially expected to be released in 2023 but has been pushed back. As a result, Epic Games is now relying more heavily on AI to automate tasks such as code generation and art creation, aiming to reduce the time and resources required for game development.
