A recent discovery by gamers and online forums suggests that the game “The Alters” may have utilized generative AI techniques in its development. One example appears to show that 11 Bit Studios relied heavily on AI to translate the game into Brazilian Portuguese, with a comment from an AI bot stating “Every conversation two people can have, right?” similar to responses generated by AI chatbots like ChatGPT.
Another instance of AI-generated text was spotted in-game, where a sentence reads “Sure, here’s a revised version focusing purely on scientific and astronomical data.” This has led some players to speculate that the game’s art may also be partially AI-generated. However, 11 Bit Studios has yet to comment on this matter, with no warning on the Steam page indicating the use of generative AI.
The game “The Alters” was released on June 13, 2025, for PC and Xbox Series X|S, developed by 11 Bit Studios using the Unreal Engine 5. Despite the discovery of potential AI-generated content, the developer has not publicly addressed the issue at this time.
